Malaysia will not join US-backed Board of Peace, will monitor actions over Palestinian rights

Malaysia will monitor the US-backed Board of Peace and criticise any actions that undermine Palestinian rights.

Deputy Foreign Minister stated Malaysia will use global platforms to defend Palestinian rights against challenges like misuse of veto powers.

Malaysia condemns Israel's ceasefire violations in Gaza and will raise these issues through the UN, OIC, NAM, and Asean.

KUALA LUMPUR, Oct 14 — Malaysia will not join the US-backed Board of Peace (BOP) but will continue monitoring its activities and criticising any actions that undermine Palestinian rights, the Dewan Rakyat was told today.

Deputy Foreign Minister Datuk Lukanisman Awang Sauni said the government was assessing developments involving the BOP, including its scope, implementation and implications for achieving lasting peace in West Asia.

“If the Board of Peace takes any action that goes against the interests of the Palestinian people, Malaysia will remain consistent in voicing its criticism,” he said during the question-and-answer session.

He was responding to a supplementary question from Ahmad Tarmizi Sulaiman (PN-Sik) on Malaysia’s diplomatic efforts to ensure the BOP did not undermine Palestinian self-determination and to address the expansion of illegal Israeli settlements in the West Bank.

Lukanisman said Malaysia would continue exerting pressure through the United Nations and other multilateral platforms to defend Palestinian rights and justice.

The deputy minister, however, acknowledged challenges posed by the misuse of veto powers, which had hindered stronger international action to protect Palestinians.

Responding to another supplementary question from Datuk Mohd Isam Mohd Isa (BN-Tampin) on establishing an independent and credible mechanism to monitor the Gaza ceasefire, Lukanisman said Malaysia would continue raising the issue through the UN, Organisation of Islamic Cooperation (OIC), Non-Aligned Movement (NAM) and Asean.

He said the Foreign Ministry had also issued an official statement condemning Israel’s ceasefire violations, restrictions on humanitarian aid and actions that had worsened the humanitarian crisis in Gaza. — Bernama

马来西亚将监督美国支持的和平委员会，并批评任何损害巴勒斯坦人权利的行为。

马来西亚外交部副部长表示，马来西亚将利用国际平台捍卫巴勒斯坦人民的权利，对抗滥用否决权等挑战。

马来西亚谴责以色列违反加沙停火协议的行为，并将通过联合国、伊斯兰合作组织、不结盟运动和东盟提出这些问题。

吉隆坡，10 月 14 日——马来西亚下议院今天获悉，马来西亚不会加入美国支持的和平委员会（BOP），但将继续监督其活动，并批评任何损害巴勒斯坦人权利的行为。

外交部副部长拿督卢卡尼斯曼·阿旺·萨乌尼表示，政府正在评估边境保护局（BOP）的相关事态发展，包括其范围、实施情况以及对实现西亚持久和平的影响。

他在问答环节中表示：“如果和平委员会采取任何有损巴勒斯坦人民利益的行动，马来西亚将继续一如既往地表达批评意见。”

他是在回答艾哈迈德·塔米兹·苏莱曼（PN-Sik）提出的补充问题，该问题涉及马来西亚为确保边境口岸不损害巴勒斯坦自决权以及解决以色列在西岸非法定居点扩张问题而做出的外交努力。

卢卡尼斯曼表示，马来西亚将继续通过联合国和其他多边平台施加压力，捍卫巴勒斯坦人的权利和正义。

然而，这位副部长承认，滥用否决权带来了挑战，阻碍了更有力的国际行动来保护巴勒斯坦人。

针对拿督莫哈末·伊萨姆·莫哈末·伊萨（国阵-淡边）提出的关于建立独立可信机制来监督加沙停火的另一个补充问题，卢卡尼斯曼表示，马来西亚将继续通过联合国、伊斯兰合作组织、不结盟运动和东盟提出这个问题。

他表示，外交部也已发表正式声明，谴责以色列违反停火协议、限制人道主义援助以及加剧加沙人道主义危机的行动。——马新社
