Uzbekistan is opening the doors of its medical facilities to those affected by conflict situations and children, offering them free treatment. This was announced by President Shavkat Mirziyoyev during his speech at the extraordinary Arab-Islamic summit in Riyadh.
The President of Uzbekistan expressed deep concern over the escalation of the conflict, which has now extended to Lebanese territory. He emphasized that the scale of human casualties and destruction in the region is the largest seen in recent times.
Mirziyoyev paid special attention to the issue of double standards in the international community when reacting to ongoing tragedies, which, in his view, heightens the risk of further conflict escalation.
The Uzbek leader also called for strengthening the role of the UN and the Security Council in resolving this protracted conflict.
Speaking about the region’s future, the President of Uzbekistan offered strong support for the idea of creating an independent state of economic development with its capital in East Jerusalem, within the 1967 borders.
He also endorsed Saudi Arabia's initiative to create a Global Alliance to address the two-state solution.
As part of humanitarian assistance efforts, Mirziyoyev announced plans to discuss practical support for the Palestinian people at the upcoming "Arab Gulf States–Central Asia" summit in Samarkand.
Special attention was given to the preservation of Jerusalem’s historical and cultural monuments, including the sacred Al-Aqsa Mosque.
The President called for an immediate cessation of military actions in this region of Western Asia and for ensuring the safety of humanitarian corridors.
He also stated the need for more active efforts by the international community to prevent a humanitarian disaster in Palestine and Lebanon.
