"We appreciate the position of the Secretary-General, who is calling for a humanitarian ceasefire immediately. Now. And he also said that the Gaza Strip is becoming a graveyard of children and that crime has to be stopped. We appreciate these statements [...] As suggested by the Secretary-General, of the scale of a minimum of 100 truck loads per day, we need more than that, but a minimum of that," he said.
"Those attacking him, the only ones, are Israel and [...] they are completely detached from reality. He is the Secretary-General of the UN and he represents the moral power of the UN to stop wars, save civilian human lives. He is doing that when it comes to the Palestinian people [...] Those who are trying to criticize his job and request his resignation are alone, they are totally isolated, they are reckless, they are schemers," Mansour stated.
"Congress, which is providing Israel with limitless amounts of weapons and financial support, would encourage the current Israeli government to continue this aggression. We wish that they wouldn't encourage aggression, but encourage them to stop the war and to move in the direction of peace [...] But they are responsible for their decisions. Logic would say if you want peace and to stop the fighting, you don’t provide the tools to encourage one party to continue the war," he added.
