Alliance of Palestinian Civil Society Organizations: We confirm that the Balfour Declaration was a colonial intervention that contributed to the perpetuation of the suffering of the Palestinian people and the denial of their rights, and that its consequences continue through occupation, settlement and displacement. We consider the British government to be historically and morally responsible for the consequences of the promise, and call on it to recognize the historical injustice and take practical steps to do justice to our people. We emphasize that our people's right to self-determination, independence and the return of refugees are inalienable rights that are not subject to the statute of limitations, and we call on the international community to act to end Israel and hold those responsible for its crimes accountable.
