Venezuela promotes its diplomatic representation to Palestine from a representative office to embassy

Occupied Al-Quds – The Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela has decided to promote its diplomatic representation to the State of Palestine from a representative office to an embassy.

The Palestinian Minister for Foreign Affairs and Expatriates Riyad Al-Malki welcomed this historic decision, which builds on the historical relations that bind the two friendly countries and their peoples, stressing that Venezuela always stands by the Palestinian people and considers the Palestinian cause to be at the core of its interests.

The Palestinian Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Expatriates also commended the decision describing it a translation of Venezuela’s recognition of the State of Palestine in 2009, and a reflection of the deeply rooted historical relations between the two friendly countries. It added that the decision reflects Venezuela’s unswerving support for the State of Palestine and the rights of the Palestinian people at all levels.

The Ministry thanked the leadership, people and President of the Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela for their unlimited support for the Palestinian people and their just cause, and for this courageous decision that contributes to the embodiment of the State of Palestine on the ground with Al-Quds as its capital, especially in light of the attempts to liquidate the Palestinian cause.
