NGOs Push for Africa-Palestine Summit to Support Palestinian Rights

Al-Quds International Institution (QII) launched calls for holding an African-Palestinian summit, days after the Africa-Israel summit was called off.

QII said the fact that the Africa-Israel summit, which was slated to be hosted by Togo by the end of October, was cancelled is a confirmation of Africa’s pro-Palestine stance, PIC reported.

“It is just a normal fact of history that free peoples who have resisted colonization in Africa keep their doors closed before imperialistic projects,” QII’s Director-General, Yassin Hamoud, said.

Hamoud hailed the national and international NGOs who have unraveled the Israeli crimes against the Palestinians and done every possible effort to cancel the Africa-Israel summit.

Hamoud has warned of underway Israeli attempts to pressure African leaders to revive the summit, urging the international and African NGOs to remain on guard to such anti-Palestinian initiatives which aim to toughen Israel’s grip on the Dark Continent.(R/R04/)RS5)
