4. Decides to address strongly the dangerously aggressive threats of Israel, the occupying power, while taking all the possible political, legal and diplomatic actions and measures, including through initiating actions with the UN Security Council, the General Assembly, the UNHRC, international courts, and other international organizations and bodies, to counter and isolate Israel’s expansionist colonial regime, and condemns in this regard any party that supports and associates with these hostile steps in any way or form. 5. Emphasizes the right of the State of Palestine to sovereignty over all Palestinian territory occupied since 1967, including East Jerusalem, maritime space, territorial waters, and its borders with neighboring countries, and reaffirms that attempts by the Israeli occupation to annex any part of the occupied Palestinian territory, including Al-Quds Al-Sharif, as well as all administrative measures and procedures to illegally alter the character and status of the occupied territory of the State of Palestine are null and void, have no legal effect, and shall be countered at all levels. 6. Underlines the historical and legal responsibility of the United Nations with regard to the question of Palestine until it is resolved in all its aspects, while calling on the UN Security Council to uphold its legal responsibility with view to enabling the Palestinian people to regain their inalienable rights. It also urges the UN Security Council not to accept or recognize any change to the pre-1967 borders, including with regards to Al-Quds Al-Sharif, and to take the necessary measures to prevent these annexation plans, by compelling the Israeli occupation to stop all its illegal actions, live up fully to its responsibilities under the Fourth Geneva Convention and the ICJ Advisory Opinion of 2004, and implement relevant UN resolutions, including Security Council resolution 2334 (2016). 7. Calls on the international community to take steps against the Israeli occupation and its colonial practices that jeopardize the fundamentals of the rule-based international order, not to recognize the illegal status of Israeli settlement on the occupied Palestinian territory, including East Jerusalem, or help to sustain it in any way , as well as take all the necessary legal countermeasures that include refraining from dealings with any Israeli government that endorses its annexation agenda, imposing economic and political sanctions on Israel, boycotting the Israeli colonial system, illegal Israeli settlements and their products, in addition to ensuring accountability measures, with a view to ending the Israeli colonial occupation and realizing national independence of the State of Palestine based on 1967 borders, with Al-Quds al-Sharif as its capital. 8. Declares its support for the Palestinian leadership’s decisions of 19 May 2020, while reiterating that peace and security in the Middle East, as a strategic option, cannot be achieved without ending Israel’s illegal, colonial occupation of the State of Palestine, including Al-Quds Al-Sharif and the Arab territories occupied since June 1967; and calls on the international community to make every effort necessary to end this illegal occupation, and to help the Palestinian people achieve their inalienable rights and fulfill their legitimate national aspirations, including exercising their right to self-determination, realizing sovereignty and independence of the State of Palestine, with Al-Quds Al-Sharif as its capital, and reaching a just solution to the question of Palestinian refugees in compliance with the principles of international law, relevant UN resolutions and the Arab Peace Initiative, which was adopted by the Extraordinary Islamic Summit of Mecca (2005). --More 19:19 LOCAL TIME 16:19 GMT 0016 www.spa.gov.sa/w1347803
