MOSCOW (Sputnik) - Russia is monitoring the humanitarian catastrophe unfolding in Palestine with pain and anxiety, Russian President Vladimir Putin said on Tuesday.
"Of course, we are monitoring with great pain and anxiety the humanitarian catastrophe that has unfolded in Palestine. For our part, we are doing everything to support the Palestinian people," told Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas at talks in Moscow.
During the meeting, Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas said that the United Nations had failed in its mission to create a Palestinian state.
"The UN, because of US pressure, has failed in its mission to give one solution, to pass one resolution that would realize, ensure the realization of the right of the Palestinian people," Abbas emphasized.
Russia is a "friendly country for the Palestinian people," and Palestine counts on Russian support, the president added.
Abbas added that he rejects the attempts of a forcible transfer of Palestinians from the Gaza Strip, the West Bank of the Jordan River, and Jerusalem.
"We count on humanitarian support for the Palestinians, an end to the policy of expatriation. We will not accept that. We will not accept the expatriation of Palestinians from the Gaza Strip, the West Bank, and Jerusalem, as we have done so many times before in the twentieth century. We believe that, with your support, we will achieve our goals," he said.
