UN: Golan Heights status is unchanged

US President Donald Trump called to recognise the disputed territory as Israeli

The United Nations has reiterated its position on the sovereignty of the Golan Heights, insisting that the status of the area has not changed after US Donald Trump’s call to recognise it as Israeli territory.

After Thursday’s tweet by US President Donald Trump, in which he called to recognise the disputed territory of the Golan Heights, numerous European and Middle East countries voiced their strong opposition to the move.
