CAIRO (PIC)– The Arab League has asked the Vatican not to sign any agreement with Israel without first revising articles of the international law.
Assistant Arab League secretary general for Palestine and occupied land affairs Mohammed Subaih said in a statement on Tuesday that the Vatican should consult with the Arab League before signing any agreement with Israel.
He said commenting on the near signing of an agreement between Israel and the Vatican over property owned by the Catholic church in eastern Jerusalem that any such agreement would be in violation of the international legitimacy that deemed eastern Jerusalem an occupied territory as part of the Palestinian land occupied in 1967.
