Abbas to UN: Hold Israel responsible for not upholding commitments to Res. 181 and 194
The video shows part of a speech delivered by PA Chairman Mahmoud Abbas at the UN World Urban Forum in Cairo, Egypt.
PA Chairman Mahmoud Abbas: "We again emphasize that the Israeli occupation state should be held accountable for not upholding its commitments when it was accepted as a UN member in 1949. In 1949, Israel was accepted as a member of the UN on two conditions: Accepting [UN] Resolutions 181 and 194… Upholding the [General] Assembly's Resolutions 181 and 194 requires implementing appropriate measures against it [Israel] if it doesn't uphold its commitments."
