72 UNGA: Statement of Cuba at Ministerial Committee Meeting of the Non-Aligned Movement on Palestine. New York, September 19, 2017.

Mr. President and dear Ministers,

It is time to pay off the historical debt to the State of Palestine and to restore the inalienable rights of its people, violated by Israel for more than half a century of occupation, collective punishment, destruction and confiscation of land and property, forced displacement and colonial settlements in the occupied Palestinian territories.

The blockade of the Gaza Strip for almost a decade, which plunges more than two million Palestinians into a deep socio-economic and humanitarian crisis, must be stopped immediately.
