1:00 pm
step peps unsurprising, the strident defends, posting and writes from the wrong yeah, absolutely. iran that just called on the core to make what they said to a story landmark opinion on the occupation of uh, of palestine. saying that this should immediately and, and give the right of self determination to the products to the end people. uh, he also said that it's the longest military occupation in modern history. and he was also referring to the situation to the current situation, of course and gaza. saying that as well as the killing 250 people a day and saying this is more than any other conflict happening. and it's also the calamity of guy is the calamity of human kind to. that's what he said and interesting before him was the chinese representatives for speaking and they very well listen to the united states have to say a day earlier,
1:01 pm
basically countering all the arguments that the us brought forward. a interesting saying that you asked for example side, it was a bilateral issue between israel and palestine and to you when the court should stay out of it. according to china, it was definitely a matter for the you want to talk about the self determination of the palestinian people that's been talked about, of course and all of the resolutions in the past. so that argument that the last broad forward was completely invalid. they sat and also the argument the us made about to it's the right of it's route to self defense and that's why the occupation has to continue. while the chinese, a representative said that it was a loud um struggles if a country is occupied by a foreign nation, basically saying as well as the foundation of to fi file is fine. so the right to self defense basically lies more with the palestinians. then with the is for
1:02 pm
a lease, so it was a very interesting statement that did chinese a made also. they said that the, for example, that the advice or opinion should give guidance and it's not disrupting any peace negotiations that could take place. that's something also the us brought forward yesterday. no, uh, there's a china side. it is actually very important to have this advisory opinion coming from the highest court because it will guide any future negotiations. step boston, the following orders. there is proceedings at the hague for us. thank you so much that. well, let's not dig into this with mullin. bashar i'm out of here, a senior political analyst who joins me here in the studio. moment is we would just stay in saying that with step, but we see no surprises from the run. did anything from the job you statement stand out to you? what is the fact that it was just a position then with the american space? i thought it was also interesting either way, the chinese made the argument that i knew you're running by the court or by the,
1:03 pm
in the guy that the of these are in the occupation would help me not hinder future negotiations or present piece process, or diplomacy. if you were, the 3 is right and the process is very much in direct contradiction, right? imagine that. and the other point i thought was very interesting about chinese, of course, have a history with the japanese and others. is that the, uh, is that they occupied out all right, for the resistance of a right. so it is by all available means and i think that was especially important because you don't hear this stuff anymore, right? as if so, as this, i mean nation, i gained its independence and the right of self determination for the v. a satellite colonial power by negotiations just never happens. and that comes insisted yesterday, but just leave it to the 2 parties that figured it out. but we have some charges of
1:04 pm
history, but the 2 part there's never figured it out. either one of them has to desist by all means available in order to vanquish the occupier for the international community. these separate. yeah, and i think, judging from the statements before, i'd ask that yesterday, but also including us that the, like the russians on i think that's the one that the palestinians are looking for, an international conference for peace. because the way things had been squeezed on the, the american sponsorship that's basically us back is read, write negotiations per not foot for what it's interesting to see these dynamics now, because within the current geo political situation, i've been wondering whether this is also an opportunity for policies like china, ron russia, to, to, i guess, try to consolidate some, what on anti western sentiment? there's no doubt about that. in fact, the opposite is also true, right?
1:05 pm
meaning, the united states has used this probably particular issue, in fact has used it as occupation of palestine and out of territories in order to stay relevant to them. at least. i mean in fact, as we were showing yesterday, the figures and, and, and facts about the history of the us is our versions in the 1st 2 decades before 1967 is really a war and occupation of the palestinian territories. american age was something like a 1000000 plus dollars over 2 decades. and the following 2 decades of the $9067.00 occupation, the present, the $50000000.00 plus. so it was an annual investment. i mean, actually america, invest in the occupation was a better thing and people are very pressure, oppression, and so on. so for using them as a leverage or using visual compassion as leverage and hold the to better position
1:06 pm
itself in the out of world is a v at of countries on other middle eastern countries and names, america is not a neutral party. and this is, you know, a pro is right for america, but the end as well, if we're seeing deepening on to west and on to us sentiment in the region as a result of this as well, of what is the strategic thinking then all on the part of the wrong, there's obviously been huge phases of escalation. tyrone has links to many of the groups. you've been very active over the last few months. what is terrell? i'm thinking right now it feels like it's been fairly calibration so far. well, in terms of its position, as we've heard it anyway, the last half an hour, it's clearly sticking with the so called international mutual international legitimacy. or, you know, you on charter, i do understand you should international law as well and so forth, while making certain opinionated statements. if you're order, which i happen to agree with about a party then by the side and why it is to be, uh, you know, uh, remove them so on,
1:07 pm
so forth. but in terms of its regional rules for, of course, it's also using the is there any, is there any doctor patient high that kind of thing and resistance in doctor if i that has what as well as the knees resistance as assets for here ons own originally so that's why, unfortunately i would say the question of front of started has become a proxy, somewhat right, between the airline and the united states, each side trying to is and get to become or to be more relevant in the middle east . and that's why we keep talking about widening the war, which for the time being sent for the united or i'm over the united states is interested in doing all which because it could end up burning the whole origin. but that does not mean that the 1st thing it should be, contain the pet a senior should be silence. the 2nd, but essentially the remainder of the front. because once again, my last comment on this yesterday or the day for you, so that the american, what,
1:08 pm
what we need, you know, got my attention on the american statement was that you wish that the court should not ask is read immediately and to talk your patient there's nothing immediate about it. it's 56 years. 56, you found the sharp always great to get your thoughts. thanks for joining us. as news out of the, well, let's show you what's been happening on the ground as these hearings have been taking place in southern dogs, a number of his riley strikes had residential buildings and rough mode of life. at least 6 people were killed. children are among the wounded casualties, have been mounting in that area where at 1500000 and just based palestinians, or sheltering is really a types of shows at least 29400 color spending. and so, since october is really strikes on, rafa also talk, i said the out from last in the i shall bore refuge account hundreds of historic

1:12 pm
are not only causing the debt, so 1000 a palestinian so far, but also a, causing a great deal of damage to the aid mechanism on the ground causing famine in the north, but also causing people to struggle on daily basis to get food and water. and you talk about how the ada infrastructure is being systematically destroyed. you've also been telling us about how people have been starving that for weeks, especially in the north, where are we at with a dozen miles and as well that the whole a mechanism is broken. unfortunately, starting from where, where they are stored in a day, gyptian side, the mechanism of security clearance that has to do with 2 different locations of, from rough ahead crossing all the way through an area controlled by these really a monetary for security clearance. it just, the process takes very long,
1:13 pm

1:26 pm
eclipse on russian media, especially in social media. it was a 2 companies, the soldiers being brought together. and under a very similar circumstances, a direct strike apparently problem is all this comes as ukraine is also claiming victory in the air. it says that in the past week or so, it has shut down 7 russian jets, which is a relatively high number. and to the premiums have been looking up front of boot booths. it's a capabilities as a way of trying to shift the dynamics in the small everybody's expecting. of course, the arrival of at 16 fights is over ukrainian skies. if that will make a difference. and it does come as things seem to be stalemated on the ground and defend the thing. moving in rushes direction with its capture recently, all of of data. it also feels like it comes at a significant time knowing it's now what the 2nd anniversary of the full scale invasion if i'm not wrong and we're looking now basically down the bottom of a 3rd year. that's right. i mean both sides a mocking disadvantage. it is the 2nd,

the taking of hostages. the use of human shields and the firing of indiscriminate rockets as urban centers comes to choose serious violations of international humanitarian law for which those involved must be held accountable. however, international limits the use of force in self defense to no more than fault is necessary. and proportion us islands view is that these limits have been exceed us by israel in its ministry response to the mass attack. this is manifest from the spiraling jeff to the extensive disrupt destruction of property, including homes, through live casa, the displacement of up to 2000000 people. i'm the and suing humanitarian catastrophe. ireland has repeatedly called for

a ceasefire and we are dismayed by the implications that these licensed tough tennessee's in gaza may have for the prospect of resolving the wider is really palestinian conflict. the members of the course. this is a tragic conflict between 2 peoples and any solution for it to endure requires each to respect the rights of the other. for thought, reason, ireland has been a consistent and the vocal supports are of a comprehensive 2 state solution to the conflict. we lament the lack of progress made towards achieving that subject of puts in the absence of any imminent prospect of a negotiation. as i've come. we believe that our reputation now white this course
1:44 pm
of the international law issues raised by the prolonged occupation of the palestinian territory, will assist in providing a stable foundation upon which to build a just resolution on the fresh old question of jurisdiction. arden's view is that the questions put to the course are legal questions within the meaning of article 961 of the char, sure. of the united nations. further, the request for an advisory opinion is in our view, within the complex sense of the general assembly. finally, and as the court has itself previously acknowledged, the fact that the legal question may have a political dimension does not exist the court's jurisdiction. moreover, for this is well established that the course enjoys discretion, re power,
1:45 pm
not to provide an advisory opinion. it should only so decline for compelling reasons which has never happened before. and arden's view should not happen. no, or several states have suggested that this request for an advisory opinion is an attempt to resolve a bilateral dispute without the consent of one of the parties to the disputes. we very much regret that israel has chosen not to engage with the subject matter of the request in our discussions with the israeli government. we encouraged it to participate in these or on the hearings so that the course could have the benefits of its perspective. however, in our view, the issue of the occupied palestinian territory is directly of concern to the
1:46 pm
united nations itself. and it goes much further than a mere bilateral dispute. as this cork nauseous in its advisory opinion on the interpretation of peace treaties with bold, guerria, hungry and romania. even if i were a request for an advisory opinion, relates to a legal question actually pending between states. its opinion is given not to the states, but to the organ requesting us. in this case, the general assembly is, has also been suggested that this course or not to a pine, because the questions are wilton's side just in nature. however, it is well established that the courts may interpret us or even reformulate use a question if it is not adequately, formula exist, or where the question does not reflect the legal questions. really an issue.
1:47 pm
similarly, where a question is vague or i'm big, it was the court make power requires before providing its opinion to a further argument advanced by some it is that the court should narrow the question to a request for advice regarding the role of the general assembly in promoting a resolution to the conflict within the established negotiation framework. however, the court has previously reject us. a similar submission holding task is not for the course itself. cooper, port to decide whether or not as an advisory opinion is needed by the assembly for the performance of its functions. the general assembly has the rights to decide for itself on the usefulness of an opinion in the life of its own needs. we do not agree, therefore, the ruling by this course would undermine the established negotiation framework of the country. this courts solve
1:48 pm
a sense of clarification of the important legal issues raised would provide the essential foundation upon which to build a lasting, comprehensive, and just resolution of the israeli palestinian conflict. mister president's israel has been an occupation of the palestinian territory since 1967. accordingly, in the territory is obliged to respect up clickable international humanitarian law, including the little military occupation and international human rights law. the defining feature of israel as occupation of palestinian territory in the west bank including east jerusalem has been continuous settlement activity. in our written statement, we have drawn on the sources of reports of the secretary general and the high
1:49 pm
commissioner for human rights to specialize. the numerous different ways in which this has occurred. but in summary, we say the following. israel has used different means to take and exercise control for non military purposes, over as much land in the o p t as possible. ones in control, israel has undertaken permanent construction on this land, in particular, developing or encouraging the development of permanent settlements onto which it has incentivized large numbers of its own citizens to transfer through its actions. israel has fundamentally altered the demographics of the west bank as of 2022, almost $700.00 times and has rightly citizens were living in settlements in the west bank,
1:50 pm
including in east jerusalem. israel has extend that the application of domestic is really loyal to those living and supplements, blurring the distinction between israel and the o. p t. us and israel has transferred to the exercise of a pharmacy in the o. p t in certain areas from military command to civilian control, integration administration of the territory, into the office of israel. by transferring parts of its own civilian population into the o. p t. israel has violates his article force he 96 of the 4th geneva convention is, has continued to do this, not withstanding the courts confirmation of its own lawfulness. in the wolf case, i'm the spikes being exhausted by both the security council. i'm the general

assembly to cease best practice. israel has also continued to lawfully destroy and appropriate property throughout the o, p t. as part of its policy of encouraging, i'm facilitating the expansion of supplements this destruction under pro creation of proper. she cannot reasonably be justified by military necessity, rather, is clear that it has been done to facilitate you sounds indeed encourage the expansion of settlements. such destruction of the appropriation of property clearly breached as the 4th geneva convention. i'm the laws and customs of war, codified by the 1907 page regulations. there has also been a recent marked increase in reports of palestinian civilians being subjected to sustained serious violence by his rightly settlers with little or no protection
1:52 pm
from the as really security forces country to international humanitarian law. the security forces have been, report, has, and record has not so many watching this violence without intervening, within some instances, even participating in us themselves. this has escalates us since the 7th of october . and the secretary general has warned the tensions have now reached boiling point . the secretary general and high commissioner have expressed concern that this violence, particularly when considered in life, of the appropriation of destruction of palestinian prophecy, has compelled palestinians to leave their homes, their farms, and their grazing grands. the secretary general has noticed that the co worship environment created by israel qu domain to forcible trans fair,
1:53 pm
a grave breach of the 4th geneva convention, which may a mind to a war crime to let me know turn to the question of amex ation the evident permanence of the settlements can only be explained in the redlands assessment by israel's intention of mixing the land upon which they are built. in our view, the development and expansion of settlements clearly demonstration that israel is and has been engaged in a process of amex ation about land for decades. the absence of any declaration of our next station or formal your a active incorporation. over most of the west bank isn't material. despite references in the current is really government's coalition agreements, which the secretary general describes us promotion
1:54 pm
a policy of the application of sovereignty over the west bank. previous history suggests that no and 9 summons or formal active incorporation may occur in the near future. nevertheless, in arlington spew, israel is already engaged in the process of annexing palestinian territory. it is doing so de facto true, it's policy of encouraging demographic change in that territory by population trends fair. i'm by the continuous development and maintenance of permanent supplements and infrastructure. arlington is concerned that it may also be doing so j your a by you increasingly extending the application of domestic is really low and civilian administration to the settlements in the o. p t. thereby integrating them into its own territory under raising the
1:55 pm
differences in law between israel and the settlements. let's, let's, whether de facto that your a or both. this process of next ation is in clear breach of the prohibition in international law against the acquisition of territory. by fresh for use of force, a fundamental principle of international law. to assert that this is not the case, simply because israel has not formally declared on x, ation, would render the preservation devoid dival meaning that would permit states to acquire, to retreat by force, without legal consequence. simply by declining to adopt a formal act, labanic station or incorporation. international humanitarian law does not classify military occupation as either law, full or law,
1:56 pm
full per se, rather is recognized as the military occupation may occur. during the course of an armed conflict. did set stand rules to regulate the conduct of the occupying power in particular, its armed forces. military occupation is necessarily temporary. in so far as international law prohibits the acquisition of territory by force, occupation does not compare sovereignty. rather, it is a temporary exception to sovereignty. and accordingly, it cannot be of indefinite curation, a prolonged occupation over an extended period of time. therefore, unavoidably raises legal questions. in particular, whether it constitutes a disguised form of amex, ation, and door, a determined efforts to deny the people of an occupied territory. the exercise of
1:57 pm
their rights to self determination. in either case, the legality of the occupying powers presence in the territory, it never simply arises. while this is of course possible. doesn't military occupation affected by force may be undertaken in the exercise of the rights in international law to the use of force in self defense? any such occupation may involve no more intimate and your no longer than is necessary and proportion as to the armed attack. to which is a response. in the case of b o, p t. israel's military occupation commenced in 1967 and has continued now uninterrupted, for some 57 years. it has also entails, as i've said, extensive and continuous, permanent and deliberate,
1:58 pm
supplement building needs or the duration of the occupation, nor the scale of the extent of settlement activity is an island this view justified or permission by the law regulating the use of force in self defense, or indeed, if the security of one people can only be achieved by the occupation over so many decades of the territory of another people. one has to wonder whether there can be any military solution to the problem that's it purports to address. in our view, the only effective solution to the problem can be a political one. mister president, i wish to turn know to the question of self determination. as submission or written statement, arlen has conclude just the whites prolonged occupation of palestinian lands and
1:59 pm
continue a settlement activity on those lines. israel has prevented the exercise by the palestinian people of the rights to self determination. the principle of self determination is a fundamental principle of international instructions and the charge for with the united nations and the $21966.00 international covenants on civil and political rights and on economic, social, and cultural rights. the content about principal was an upper races in the 1970 declaration on friendly relations adopters by consensus at the general assembly. the declaration makes clear passion. every stage has the juicy to promote true joint and separate action. realization of the principle of equal rights and self determination of peoples. bearing in mind that subjection of peoples to alien
2:00 pm
subjugation domination and exploitation constitutes a violation of that principle. as well as a denial of fundamental human rights and his country to the charger. this declaration solemnly proclaims that every space has the juicy to refrain from any forcible action which deprives peoples in the operation of the present principle of the right to self determination and freedom and independence. in the wall case, the court finds that the construction of the whole and its associations regime severely impedes at the exercise by the palestinian people of the right to self determination. if therefore breached is rails obligation to respect us rice in arden's view, the combination of israel's prolonged occupation of the o p t and its escalating settlement talking to.
