18:00-18:30 General Meeting
18:30 Commemorative speech
Shortly after the “cease-fire agreement,” President Trump's statement that he “owns Gaza” has sparked backlash around the world. The Palestinian issue has a long history. South Africa argued that “Israel's actions relating to Palestinians in Gaza violate obligations based on the Genocide Convention” (2023.12), filed a lawsuit with the International Court of Justice (ICJ), and the ICJ, which received this, issued an interim measures order. How should we grasp the disaster in Gaza, and is it impossible to free Palestine from Israeli occupation as a fundamental issue? Think from the perspective of international law. The video “I Don't Need an Emergency Clause” produced by Nichibenren will also be screened.
