The League of Arab States condemned the decision of Moldova to transfer its embassy in Israel from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem, which was a flagrant violation of the rights of the Palestinian people and a flagrant violation of international law and relevant resolutions of international legitimacy.
The Assistant Secretary-General of the Palestinian Sector and the Occupied Territories of the Arab League Said Abu Ali said in a statement on Wednesday June 12th that this decision violates international law and relevant resolutions of international legitimacy.
Moldova says it will move its embassy to Jerusalem – making it the first European country to do so – in the midst of a constitutional crisis and power struggle.
Acting Prime Minister Pavel Filip hints that the move is connected to the precarious government situation after a constitutional court suspended the country's elected president, Igor Dodon, allowing the interim leader to follow through on a decision that opposing political parties had formerly prevented.
