REPUBLIKA.CO.ID, JAKARTA -- Indonesia on Wednesday urged member states of the Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC) to unite and mobilize support against Israel's imminent annexation of Palestinian territories.

Foreign Minister Retno Marsudi conveyed Indonesia’s stance during the Open-Ended Virtual Extraordinary Meeting of the OIC Executive Committee on Wednesday night.

She said any such move during the COVID-19 pandemic will double the pressure on Palestine, damage the peace process, and threaten regional stability.

She stressed the annexation, whether in a “de facto” or “formal” manner, is unacceptable and proposed three steps to mobilize support for Palestine.
