IMPACT OF PRESIDENT BUSH'S STATEMENT ON ISRAELI POLICY IN THE OCCUPIED TERRITORIES (EDM991)

IMPACT OF PRESIDENT BUSH'S STATEMENT ON ISRAELI POLICY IN THE OCCUPIED TERRITORIES

EDM number 991 in 2003-04, proposed by Richard Burden on 19/04/2004.

That this House expresses strong concerns about the comments of President George W. Bush on 14th April, endorsing Ariel Sharon's proposed Disengagement Plan; notes that the partisan nature of President Bush's comments have undermined the Road Map and believes that his uncritical approach has emboldened Israel to continue with its policy of assassinations which is not only illegal but sets back the cause of peace; further notes that the 14th April exchange of letters between President Bush and Ariel Sharon prejudices the Road Map's stipulation that final status issues including Jerusalem, refugees, borders, settlements and water should be matters for joint agreement between the parties rather than imposition by Israel; further notes that the US President's comments contradict international law and existing UN resolutions on the illegality of Israeli settlements and the rights of Palestinian refugees; welcomes, however, the Israeli Government's decision to remove its settlements from the Gaza Strip and calls on Israel to withdraw its military presence, arranging these withdrawals through proper negotiation with the Palestinian Authority; and further calls on the quarter of the UN, EU, Russia and USA to reassert its collective responsibility for the Road Map and to take immediate steps to secure the implementation of UN resolutions to achieve Israeli withdrawal from all territories it illegally occupies, justice for the refugees and security for Israel alongside a viable and independent Palestinian state.

This motion has been signed by a total of 159 MPs, 1 of these signatures have been withdrawn.
