Addressing the ICJ

On 26 February 2024, Dr Ralph Wilde addressed the International Court of Justice on behalf of the Arab League in respect to the UNGA Request for ICJ Advisory Opinion.

Ralph Wilde, representing LAS, stated that Palestinians have been denied their right to self-determination through a century-long violent, colonial racist effort to establish a Jewish state in Mandatory Palestine, leading to what he called "racial domination and apartheid" against Palestinians.

He then highlighted the “existential illegality of Israel’s occupation of the Palestinian Gaza Strip and West Bank, including East Jerusalem (al-Quds) since 1967”.[1]
