New Delhi: India Monday
said it has strongly objected to the cancellation of a Non-Aligned
Movement (NAM) meeting on Palestine that was to be held at Ramallah and this only strengthened its resolve to assist the
Palestinians to their "inalienable right" to statehood.
The NAM meeting, to be hosted by the the Palestine Authority on
Sunday, could not be held although it was decided in May to have
the meeting.
"The NAM ministerial committee on Palestine was to meet at
Ramallah. Unfortunately, this could not take place, although it
had been decided way back in May 10 this year," external affairs
ministry spokesman Syed Akbaruddin told reporters here.
"We have taken strong objection to this fact that we are unable to
express solidarity with the Palestinian people by holding this
meeting in Ramallah," Akbaruddin said.
"But this only strengthens our resolve to assist the Palestinian
people in their legitimate quest for dignity and in their
inalienable right to statehood," he added.
This was to be the first-ever NAM ministerial meeting on
Palestine.
