Early day motion tabled by primary sponsor Richard Burden (Labour), on Friday, 22 March 2019, in the House of Commons. It is signed by 34 members in total.
ISRAELI OCCUPATION OF THE GOLAN HEIGHTS
That this House reiterates its support for the long-held international position that Israel is in occupation of the Golan Heights and has been for nearly 52 years; notes that such an occupation should be temporary and that all Israeli settlements there are illegal under international law; urges the UK Government and European partners to oppose the new position of the US Government recognising the Golan as Israeli territory; and calls on the UK Government to reiterate the vital nature of the land-for-peace formula based on UN Security Council Resolution 242 and the UN Security Council Resolution 497 of 1981 calling on Israel to rescind its illegal annexation to be implemented.
