Ammon News - The Arab League on Saturday called on countries that have not yet recognized the State of Palestine to take the decision to recognize and to enhance the prospect of achieving peace in accordance with the vision of the two-state solution and ending the 54-year-old Israeli occupation.

The League's General Secretariat called on the Security Council to assume its responsibilities, implement its decisions, carry out its duties in maintaining international peace and security, and obligate Israel to end the occupation and complete withdrawal from all Palestinian and Arab territories occupied since June 5, 1967, and to provide international protection for the Palestinian people, according to a statement issued by the League's sector of Palestine and the occupied Arab territories on the occasion of the 54th anniversary of the an-Naksah.
