HE the Deputy Speaker of the Shura Council Dr Hamda bint Hassan al-Sulaiti met Sunday with the visiting delegation of the League of Parliamentarians for Al-Quds, led by its president Hamid ben Abdullah.
The meeting discussed topics related to the parliamentary action, primarily the parliamentary efforts devoted to stopping the wanton Israeli aggression on the Gaza Strip and avenues to espouse the Palestinian brothers' cause in the occupied territories.
Within this framework, the two sides emphasised the importance of stepping up further efforts to stop the genocide being committed against the fraternal Palestinian people, in addition to the significance of galvanising the international community to take decisive steps to stop the ongoing Israeli aggression.
In addition, the two sides underscored the significance of helping the Palestinian people regain their full rights, primarily the right to self-determination and establishing their independent state with East Jerusalem as its capital.
In a related context, members of the League of Parliamentarians for Al-Quds lauded Qatar's supportive efforts for the Palestinian people, along with its critical role in getting aid into the Gaza Strip. They also commended the efforts made by the Shura Council to espouse the Palestinian cause and protect the brothers in Gaza, alongside the occupied territories.
The meeting was attended by a number of Shura Council members.
