STATEMENT OF COSTA RICA AT THE SECURITY COUNCIL OPEN DEBATE: "THE SITUATION IN THE MIDDLE EAST, INCLUDING THE PALESTINIAN QUESTION" OCTOBER 2016

Extract:

I will focus my remarks on two conflicts in the Middle East: the Israeli-Palestinian conflict and the situation in Syria. In both cases, the escalation of violence remains alarming and civilians, including women and children, continue to pay a high price, which we firmly condemn.
