NEW YORK — Foreign Minister Nasser Judeh on Tuesday attended a meeting of the donor community that supports the Palestinian National Authority.

At the session, held in New York on the sidelines of the 69th UN General Assembly meeting, Judeh said the main challenge is not only to recover from the fallout of the Gaza war but also to guarantee an end to the cycle of violence, war and the absence of security in the entire region.

He added that this goal cannot be achieved if the root cause of the conflict is not dealt with, stressing the need for the occupation to end.

He also called for the resumption of negotiations between the Palestinians and Israelis, leading to the establishment of an independent Palestinian state, based on pre-1967 lines and with East Jerusalem as its capital.

Judeh also underlined the importance of the Gaza rebuilding conference organised by Egypt in cooperation with Norway, which is set to be held in Cairo on October 12.
