Syria Denounces Colombia's Recognition of Israeli Golan Rule - Shafaq News

Syria said Colombia’s move violates international law and U.N. resolutions that deem Israel’s annexation of the Golan null and void.

  • The Lebanese Foreign Ministry issued a 'categorical rejection' of Colombia's recognition of Israeli sovereignty over the Golan Heights, stating the territory remains an integral part of Syria.
  • Until now, the United States was the only country to recognize this annexation, which the United Nations considers null and void under Security Council Resolution 497, prohibiting acquisition of territory by force.
  • The Israeli Foreign Ministry accused Turkey of hypocrisy on Tuesday, citing Turkey's control of 36% of Cyprus, 5% of Syria, and approximately 2,000 square kilometres of Iraq.
  • In response, The Israeli Ministry stated it 'temporarily controls 0.1 per cent of Syrian territory' in a 'security zone' intended to 'protect Israeli citizens' from external threats.
  • Israel captured the Golan Heights during the Six-Day War in 1967, and the United Nations continues supporting the Disengagement Forces Agreement, which maintains a monitored buffer zone between Israeli and Syrian forces.
