Opening Paraguayan embassy in Jerusalem is illegal, act of aggression: min.

RAMALLAH - 21 May 2018: Paraguay’s moving of its embassy in Israel from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem is illegal, illegitimate, an act of aggression against the Palestinian people and their rights, a violation of relevant United Nations resolutions and international law and submission to American and Israeli dictates and bribes, the Palestinian Foreign Ministry said on Monday.

It said in a statement that it will coordinate efforts with countries opposed to moving the US embassy to Jerusalem in order to confront those which have not moved their embassy through political, diplomatic and legal means and by creating a local public opinion against the decisions of their governments.

Paraguay opened its embassy at a West Jerusalem building on Monday in the presence of the country’s president.

Guatemala had previously moved its embassy to Jerusalem following the US suit, which inaugurated its embassy on May 14.
