Abstract EN
The legal terms surrounding the establishment of the mandatory Palestine after the First World War, the United Nations’ partition plan of 1947 and subsequent international legal developments on the subject of self-determination are firmly behind the right of the Palestinian people to obtain independent statehood.
However Israel has been adamantly opposed to such an eventuality because, first and foremost, from its inception, it has chosen to become a colonial-settler state in the entire mandatory Palestine.
Not surprisingly, the Oslo negotiations from 1993 up until 2000 involving Israel and the Palestinians consisted of a series of ‘frustrations’ from the glance of the Palestinians’ political aspirations.
The Oslo ‘peace process’, then, is best described as another instrument of subjugation deployed by Israel and the USA in order to obliterate the possibility of Palestinian independence based on the right of self-determination.
Today, the alternative route for Palestinians and their international supporters should be to make efficient use of the United Nations’ mechanisms that, inter alia, enable the imposition of sanctions against Israel in order to transform the Palestinian right of selfdetermination into reality
