The message reads, in part:

The Middle East is currently undergoing one of its most severe crises to date. The unprecedented escalation of the Palestinian-Israeli conflict has resulted in the loss of tens of thousands of civilian lives and has heightened tensions in neighbouring countries and across the region. Given these tragic circumstances, the imperative for a just resolution to the Palestinian issue, based on internationally recognised principles, becomes particularly urgent.

Russia remains committed to actively supporting the collective political and diplomatic efforts initiated by the Arab partners to immediately resolve the existing contradictions. Our country is pushing for a sustainable, long-term normalisation of the situation in Palestinian territories and other conflict zones, including Sudan, Yemen, Libya, Syria, and Lebanon, insisting that the sovereignty of all these countries must be guaranteed and international law respected.

I firmly believe that the further expansion of the longstanding friendly relations and constructive multifaceted cooperation between the Russian Federation and Arab countries aligns perfectly with our shared interests and contributes to fostering security and stability at both regional and global levels.
