UNITED NATIONS, Sept. 23 (Xinhua) -- A just solution to the Palestinian issue is essential for regional stability, stated Saudi Arabian Foreign Minister Faisal bin Farhan Al Saud during his address at the 78th session of the UN General Assembly's general debate on Saturday.
"The stability of the region rests on a just and comprehensive solution for the Palestinian cause ... and the establishment of a Palestinian state based on 1967 borders with East Jerusalem as its capital," said the foreign minister.
Faisal repeated his country's positions on various Middle East issues, including Yemen, saying his country's "peace initiative" was seeking to end the conflict there.
Security and stability are not possible without cooperation and coordination between states to prevent an arms race to acquire destructive weapons, said the minister, who also condemned all unilateral measures that violate international law. ■
