Foreign Minister Jebran Bassil emphasized on Tuesday that world leaders must take practical decisions measuring with the magnitude of danger threatening Jerusalem after a US decision to recognize it as the capital of Israel, the National News Agency reported Tuesday.
Bassil, who accompanied President Michel Aoun and a high-ranking delegation to Istanbul, spoke at an emergency Organization of Islamic Cooperation summit on Jerusalem on the move by US President Donald Trump.
Bassil said the summit must come out with “decisions and practical measures that commensurate with the magnitude of danger threatening Jerusalem for what it symbolizes for Muslims, Christians and Jews.”
