President Konare commended the unity of the Islamic Ummah for which our Organization is an excellent tool for influencing world events.
The President noted with concern the situation of the Palestinian people and called for greater support to the “Al-Aqsa Intifada” in order to achieve the legitimate aspirations of the Palestinian people with the objectives of establishing their own State with Al-Quds Al-Sharif as its capital. He further deplored the conflicts and economic crises that continue to hinder the participation of our Ummah in the current process of globalization.
To this effect, he called for the setting up of a crisis resolution mechanism within the OIC . He also appealed for greater economic solidarity within the Ummah and urged for a political settlement of the external debt.
