His Excellency stated that Fiji's decision which was announced last week, as well as Paraguay's reopening of its embassy in Al Quds two months ago, are considered as acts of provocation and blatant violations of international law, as Al Quds is the capital of the Palestinian state and the home of Al Aqsa Mosque, the third of the two Holy Mosques, and will never be the capital of the Zionist entity.

H.E. further added that any State that moves its embassy to the city of Al-Quds must be aware that it is committing an illegal and illegitimate act that jeopardises international peace and security, constitutes a blatant assault on the historical and legal rights of the Palestinian people, violates Security Council resolutions, and defies the international will and consensus of the international community.
