Prof. Ihsanoglu, moreover, emphasized that peace can not be achieved without Israel&#39;s withdrawal from all Palestinian and Arab territories occupied in 1967 including East Jerusalem and the establishment of the independent Palestinian state with East Jerusalem as its capital.<\/p><\/div>\n<div style=\"color:#000000;text-align:justify;font-size:9pt;font-family:Arial, san-serif;\">\n<p style=\"margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;\">&#160;<\/p><\/div>\n<div style=\"color:#000000;text-align:justify;font-size:9pt;font-family:Arial, san-serif;\">\n<p style=\"margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;\">&#160;&#160;<\/p><\/div>\n<div style=\"color:#000000;text-align:justify;font-size:9pt;font-family:Arial, san-serif;\">\n<p style=\"margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;\">&#160;<\/p><\/div>\n<div style=\"color:#000000;text-align:left;font-size:9pt;font-family:Arial, san-serif;\">\n<p style=\"margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;\"><strong>Jeddah, 28 August 2006<\/strong><\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Press Release &#160;&#160; OIC Secretary General, Welcomes the withdrawal of the embassies of Costa Rica and El Salvador from Jerusalem (Al-Quds) &#160; &#160; The Secretary General of the Organization of the Islamic Conference, Prof. Ekmeleddin Ihsanoglu, welcomed the decision of Costa Rica and El Salvador to withdraw their embassies from Jerusalem in conformity with the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.un.org\/unispal\/document\/auto-insert-196579\/\"> [&#8230;]<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"template":"","meta":{"footnotes":""},"country":[771,813],"document-category":[2433,1329],"document-source":[2657],"committee-meeting":[],"document-subject":[1961,2185],"entity":[1889,1985],"document-language":[6542,6541],"class_list":["post-196579","document","type-document","status-publish","hentry","country-costa-rica","country-el-salvador","document-category-french-text","document-category-press-release","document-source-organization-of-the-islamic-conference-oic","document-subject-jerusalem","document-subject-legal-issues","entity-intergovernmental-organization-or-multilateral","entity-state","document-language-english","document-language-french"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.un.org\/unispal\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/document\/196579","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.un.org\/unispal\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/document"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.un.org\/unispal\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/document"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.un.org\/unispal\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.un.org\/unispal\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/document\/196579\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.un.org\/unispal\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=196579"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"country","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.un.org\/unispal\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/country?post=196579"},{"taxonomy":"document-category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.un.org\/unispal\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/document-category?post=196579"},{"taxonomy":"document-source","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.un.org\/unispal\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/document-source?post=196579"},{"taxonomy":"committee-meeting","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.un.org\/unispal\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/committee-meeting?post=196579"},{"taxonomy":"document-subject","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.un.org\/unispal\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/document-subject?post=196579"},{"taxonomy":"entity","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.un.org\/unispal\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/entity?post=196579"},{"taxonomy":"document-language","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.un.org\/unispal\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/document-language?post=196579"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
