Invitation to an International Meeting

To communist, leftist and democratic parties, peace organizations, parliamentarians, trade unions, women's organizations, representative of the public opinion, and youth movements.



In the joint appeal which was issued last month, both our parties the Palestinian People's Party )PPP(, and the Communist Party of Israel (CPI), called to mark the 40th anniversary of the occupation of the Palestinian territories, which began in June 1967, and the 60th anniversary of the issuing of the UN General Assembly resolution regarding the establishment of two states in mandatory Palestine, in November 1947. We called for these two occasions to be highlighted through an extensive range of international activities, with the aim of exerting pressure to bring the Israeli occupation to an end and to pave the way for the establishment of a just and durable peace between the two states: Israel and Palestine.

We call on all peace loving people, parties and organizations in the world to declare the week between June 2nd and 10th as the:



International week for the struggle to end the Israeli occupation & establish a just and lasting peace between Israel and Palestine



during which activities will be held in solidarity with the Palestinian people and the Israeli peace movement in their struggle against the Israeli occupation and its crimes and to establish a lasting peace.



As part of these activities, both our parties are initiating to convene an international meeting in Jerusalem . The Palestinian leadership and Palestinian and Israeli groups & organizations, will participate in this event.
