Hey friends! 😊 Have you heard what’s happening in the Middle East? Let’s dive in!
The Prime Minister of Israel, Benjamin Netanyahu, suggested that Palestinians could create their own country in Saudi Arabia. He said, “Saudis can establish a Palestinian state in Saudi Arabia; they have plenty of land there.”
But guess what? Many Arab countries are not happy about this idea! 😮
Why Are They Upset?
- Palestinians: They believe they have the right to their own homeland in Palestine, not somewhere else. Their leaders called Netanyahu’s idea “racist and anti-peace” and said it’s not fair to suggest they move to another country.
- United Arab Emirates (UAE): They said the comments are “unacceptable and provocative” and go against international laws. They stand with the Palestinian people and their rights.
- Egypt: They strongly disagreed with the statement, saying it threatens the rights of Palestinians to have their own country on their own land.
- Sudan: They called the idea “irresponsible” and an “escalation” against Palestinian rights.
What Do They Want?
Many Arab countries support a solution called the two-state solution. This means both Israelis and Palestinians would have their own countries, living side by side in peace on the lands where they are now. ✌️
They are asking the world to help protect the rights of the Palestinian people and to work towards peace in the region.
What’s Next?
It’s a complicated situation, and people around the world are watching to see what will happen next. 🌍 Stay tuned, and let’s hope for a peaceful solution soon!
