JAKARTA - DPR Speaker Puan Maharani welcomed the decision of the International Court of Justice (ICJ) which considered the illegal occupation of Israel in Palestine. Puan encouraged world countries to take action against peace efforts in Palestine.

Puan hopes that the ICJ's decision can be a new starting point in an effort to achieve peace and justice for the Palestinian people. Puan also considered the ICJ's decision to become a legal force to stop Israeli occupation of Palestine.

The International Court has emphasized that Israel's occupation in Palestine violates international law. So we Indonesian parliament support the immediate implementation of the decision and so that Israel immediately stops the conflict, especially in the Gaza Strip," said Puan, Monday, July 22.

Puan invites all parties to support diplomatic efforts that can accelerate the process of resolving the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. Especially the steps that need to be taken by the international community.

"We hope that the international community, including the United Nations, can play an active role in ensuring that this decision is respected and implemented. Only in this way can we achieve a just and lasting peace in Palestine," said Puan.

He added that the ICJ's decision to determine Israel's occupation of Palestine over the past few decades was illegal could be an important milestone in efforts to achieve justice. Therefore, Puan said Israel's occupation of Palestine must be stopped immediately.

"This International Court decision is a major step towards justice for the Palestinian people and respect for international law," said the Chairperson of the 144th World Parliamentary General Assembly (IPU).

The prolonged occupation and occupation of Israel over Palestinian territory that violates international law has been too long and must end immediately, said Puan.

Puan also emphasized the importance of respecting international law in resolving conflicts and maintaining world peace.

"The decision of the International Court is not only relevant to Palestine, but also to global efforts in upholding justice and respecting human rights," he said.

"Respect for international law is an important basis in maintaining global peace and stability. This decision must serve as a reminder for all countries to adhere to international legal principles and support peaceful conflict resolution," continued Puan.

Bung Karno's grandson also said that Indonesia had always been at the forefront of supporting Palestinian independence. In fact, Puan continues to condemn the heinous actions of the Israeli military against Palestine which has resulted in many casualties.

Indonesia has always stood behind Palestine in their struggle for independence and full sovereignty. This decision must be a turning point to accelerate the peace process and end the suffering of the Palestinian people," he said.
