The Charter of the United Nations is clear and straightforward in the ways to deal with such situa- tions, and reference to Chapter VII ought to clarify what we should do. Therefore, my delegation calls upon the Council to shoulder its responsibilities and implement the provisions of the Charter. 55. The Council is requested to put an end to Israel’s continued disregard by compelling it to withdraw from the Arab territories occupied since 1967 and to withdraw completely from Lebanon, in accordance with Council resolutions 508 (1982) and 509 (1982) and other resolu- tions; by compelling Israel, in the period prior to its with- drawal from the occupied territories, to respect the 1949 Geneva Convention relative to the Protection of Civilian Persons in Time of War and comply with all its provisions in the occupied Palestinian and Arab territories, and to halt its arbitrary and expansionist policies and practices in those territories and immediately to cease building new settlements and remove existing ones so that the owners of those lands may regain their rights; and by reaffirming that any change in the legal status, geographic nature or demographic composition of the occupied Palestinian and Arab territories constitutes a violation ofthe provisions of the Geneva Convention and is hence null and void. 56.
