이스라엘 · 팔레스타인 분쟁 해결을 위한 아시아 강대국의 역할 The Role of the Asian Powers in Resolving the Israeli-Palestinian Conflict |
203 |
Major Asian countries are leading comprehensive diplomatic initiatives through numerous channels to de-escalate the conflict in Gaza, including the provision of humanitarian assistance, and have affirmed support for Palestinian statehood as crucial to a long term negotiated settlement. Korea has consistently been an integral financial supporter of the UNRWA, with a reach of nearly six million Palestinians. In 2016, Indonesia inaugurated the opening of the Indonesian Hospital in Gaza, at the time the largest hospital in north Gaza. Japan leveraged its position, during its time as holder of the G7 Presidency, to convene global leaders and urge for de-escalation. China’s robust economic ties with Israel and extensive endeavors in mediating between Palestine and Israel further highlight the strategic role key Asian countries are primed to play in resolving the conflict. This session will invite a panel to shed light on the importance of the Asian powers to post-conflict reconstruction, mediating diplomatic exchanges, facilitating humanitarian assistance, and contributing to the establishment of a durable solution to the conflict. |
