Civil Society Organizations\' Memorandum for the High Commissioner for Human Rights regarding the right to elections in Jerusalem

 

Civil Society Organizations' Memorandum for the High Commissioner for Human Rights regarding the right to elections in Jerusalem


To Mrs. Michelle Bachelet Jeria
The United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights


We, the undersigned civil society organizations, present to you this memorandum, in your capacity of protecting human rights at the international level, to affirm that human rights are rights inherent in all human beings without discrimination, and it is the right of the Palestinians, individuals and people, to enjoy them unconditionally, and it is the duty of the international community to enables the Palestinian people under Israeli occupation to exercise all their legitimate rights, including the right to freely and democratically elect and choose their representatives. It is the duty of everyone to work for the manifestation of these rights and act according to them, and to refrain from any acts that constitute a deviation or violation of them. In this regard, we stress that Israel, the occupying power, does not have the right to obstruct or prevent the holding of general Palestinian elections in East Jerusalem or in any area of the Palestinian territories occupied in 1967, as it is bound by the signed agreements, covenants, international covenants, international humanitarian law and human rights, and the advisory opinion of the Hague Court on the Wall of 2004, respecting the right of Jerusalemites to participate in elections as an expression of the right to self-determination, as Jerusalem is part of the Occupied Palestinian Territories and the jurisdiction of the Palestinian Authority includes all Palestinian residents in all their places of residence, including those in Jerusalem who do not hold Israeli citizenship. Jerusalemites had already exercised their right to vote in 1996 and 2006, and nothing prevented them from doing that except for the Israeli policy that denies the rights of the Palestinian people, which persists in Judaizing the Holy City and the policy of annexation and expansion, which is contrary to international law. Expressing our rejection of the arbitrary practices carried out by the Israeli occupation authorities against the Palestinians, we call on you to exercise your active role in advocating for the Palestinian people and their legitimate rights and to intensify efforts and international pressure to force Israel to comply with international legitimacy by allowing elections to take place in East Jerusalem, and not to put any obstacles in the face of the participation of Palestinian Jerusalemite citizens in the elections inside the Holy City as nominations and votes, including the presence of polling centers inside the Holy City and the right to conduct election campaigning, safe and free access to polling centers, the freedom of movement of candidates and not to be subjected to or hold them accountable for exercising these rights and giving guarantees that their rights will not be violated as a result. Participate in the elections and respect their results, and allow the Palestinian Election Commission and local and international observers to operate freely as a guarantee of the integrity and transparency of the electoral process.
With full respect
