Pakistan’s Permanent Representative to the UN, Munir Akram, made a powerful speech during the United Nations General Assembly session that adopted the Jordanian resolution for a “humanitarian truce” in Gaza.
“The Israeli occupation is the original sin,” Ambassador Akram said, calling on other countries to grant Palestinians the same rights as Israelis.
“They have the same rights, they are human beings too. And if you only focus on your kith and kin in Israel and forget the Palestinians because they are different — are they people of a lesser God?”
