1. Committee: united nation security council
Agenda: Arab Israel conflict
Country: Bangladesh
A conflict between Arab- Israeli had led to wars and millions of displaced people. This particular
conflict has historical origins in the lives of the Arab and Jewish people. “The beginning of
Zionism and the Arab-Israeli Conflict explain the basic principles of this complicated dispute”
During the course of history, different groups have invaded Israel and Palestine. The area is
historically the homeland of the Jewish people who migrated to the area in the thirteenth
century but the true conflict began around 20th Century. The conflict mainly is a struggle over
land. Until 1948, both the Arab and Jewish people claimed the land of Palestine for numerous
reasons.
United Nations adopted many actions to control the conflict, and established new mechanisms.
Resolutions and Peacekeeping Operations adopted by the UN General Assembly and Security
Council. In the period from 1947 to 2002, the General Assembly adopted 627 Resolutions on
the Arab-Israel conflict. This production can be divided into three periods; the General
Assembly produced many Resolutions. This includes partition plan of the region, the Palestine
Mediator, the commissions for the Armistice Agreements and the Conciliation Commissions and
territories issues.
Bangladesh does not recognize Israel as legitimate and officially forbids its citizens to travel to
Israel by putting "Valid for travel to all countries except Israel" on Bangladeshi passports.
Bangladesh follows the same policy as other Muslim states, supporting an independent
Palestinian state and the destruction of Israel. Because there is an absence of ties, there are no
economic relations between the two states and Bangladesh has a complete ban on Israel,
ranging from travel, trade (direct and indirect) and other sectors of bilateral relations.
Bangladesh strongly condemns the ongoing discriminate Israel attacks in Palestine Bangladesh
reiterates its long position that the continued occupation of Palestine by Israel is the root cause
of violence, unrest and destabilization in the region. The people of Palestine are being denied of
their fundamental right to self-determination and the right to live freely in their own land.
Millions of Palestinians are living in refugee camps for generations in abject poverty.
Bangladesh believe in establishing of an independent Palestinian state with Jerusalem its capital
is the only sustainable solution to this lasting conflict
