” “"The centrality of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict in the unceasing instability of the Middle East and its impact on the whole international community cannot be neglected. Resolving it will hugely help to put an end to the other problems of the region and will boost mutual understanding between the peoples of the world". It was repeated by mgr. Celestino Migliore, permanent observer of the Holy See to the UN, as he spoke a few days ago at the fourth Commission of the UN General Assembly on Palestinian refugees in the Middle East. According to Migliore, "endlessly postponing the resolution of this conflict by refusing to negotiate and to find a reasonable compromise means perpetuating an injustice", since "innocent people and whole families keep suffering terribly on both sides". Hence the revival of the solution of the "two States" as the key to resolving the conflict and the wish that "realistic agreement may be found" between the two parties with the "support" of the international community and the contribution of the "different religious confessions". A peaceful resolution of the conflict, according to the Holy See, must also include the Statute of Jerusalem, where "the freedom of religion and conscience of its population" and "free access to the Holy Places by the devotees of every religion and nationality" must be guaranteed. ” “
