In recent years the General Assembly has requested the committee to monitor the situation relating to the question of Palestine and make recommendations to the General Assembly, the Security Council and the Secretary-General. The Committee continues to advocate the realization of the inalienable rights of the Palestinian people, promote a just and peaceful settlement of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict and mobilize assistance to the Palestinians. It strongly supports the objective of two States, Israel and Palestine, living side by side within secure and recognized borders.
