News Agencies

HE Minister of State for International Cooperation at the Qatari Ministry of Foreign Affairs Lolwah bint Rashid Al Khater participated in the “Women for Palestine” conference, which was held in Doha today, under the theme ‘Safety is my right,’ according to the Qatari Ministry of Foreign Affairs website.

In a speech before the conference, Her Excellency affirmed that safety is a legitimate right for every human being, a right that religions have established and guaranteed by laws and regulations, adding that the message of the conference to the women and children of Palestine is that, with their patience, they have become an icon of steadfastness and strength in the entire world. Their patience and steadfastness led to a global awakening that extended from East to West. She said that this awakening goes beyond the boundaries of the Palestine question to real accountability and a radical review of the prevailing Western civilizational model with all its concepts about freedom, equality, women’s liberation, and progress. “Therefore, women, men, and children of Palestine, we say that all of us and humanity owe you a lot.” Her Excellency said that there is much talk about the Palestinian woman, the Arab woman, and the Muslim woman, but most of it is a talk in the name of women… a talk about women… and a talk commenting on the topic of women. So, everyone tries to be a woman’s messenger and voice, but no one has appointed them as guardians of their issues and saviors from the darkness.

Addressing the conference participants, HE, the Minister of State for International Cooperation, highlighted the importance of efforts, meetings, and activities in which Arab and Muslim women speak for themselves, starting from a solid civilizational foundation that establishes an authentic intellectual approach. Her Excellency said that finding a genuine, active, and advocating voice that defends the nation’s issues in every field requires encouragement, knowledge acquisition, and daring to seek the right.

Her Excellency noted that Palestinian women inherited their courage, faith, strength, and patience from the ancient history of their nation. They are female leaders and role models famous for their loyalty, strength of character, and solid stance. Along with their brothers, they also contributed to spreading the message and building the Arab and Islamic civilizations.

HE Minister of State for International Cooperation at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs Lolwah bint Rashid Al Khater said that one of the critical tasks of the conference was to find ways and mechanisms at the humanitarian, legal, academic, and media levels to stop genocide and protect civilians in Gaza, stressing that this issue requires urgent and multidisciplinary action to stop the grave human rights violations to which the people of Gaza are exposed, and to adopt plans to intensify media campaigns so that international public opinion can play its role in pressuring to stop the aggression, expressing confidence that the conference will come out with recommendations and other creative solutions to support the people of Palestine and the women of Palestine.
