The UN Security Council will discuss the situation around al-Quds on Monday, including a Palestine-drafted resolution over the recent US decision to recognize the city as the Israeli regime's capital, a diplomatic source told Sputnik.
According to the source, the document drafted by Palestine was submitted to the UNSC by an Egyptian delegation. The draft renounces legal force and validity of any decisions that change the status and demographic composition of Jerusalem. It also urges other states to ignore the actions that violate the relevant resolutions.
The Council will hold a regular meeting on the middle east peace process on Monday with participation of UN Special Coordinator Nikolay Mladenov, however, there is no information whether the vote on the draft will take place.
