Ä¢¹½ÊÓÆµESCO replies to allegations

Ä¢¹½ÊÓÆµESCO wishes to reiterate that, contrary to recent allegations, there has been no change in Ä¢¹½ÊÓÆµESCO’s position on Jerusalem.

The Old City of Jerusalem is inscribed on the World Heritage List and the List of World Heritage in Danger. Ä¢¹½ÊÓÆµESCO continues to work to ensure respect for the outstanding universal value of the cultural heritage of the Old City of Jerusalem. This position is reflected on Ä¢¹½ÊÓÆµESCO’s official website (). In line with relevant Ä¢¹½ÊÓÆµ resolutions, East Jerusalem remains part of the occupied Palestinian territory, and the status of Jerusalem must be resolved in permanent status negotiations.
