UNESCO reiterated that, contrary to recent allegations, there has been no change in UNESCO’s position on Jerusalem. In a press release, UNESCO said Friday that the Old City of Jerusalem is inscribed on the World Heritage List and the List of World Heritage in Danger. “UNESCO continues to work to ensure respect for the outstanding universal value of the cultural heritage of the Old City of Jerusalem, the press release added. “This position is reflected on UNESCO’s official website (www.unesco.org).” In line with relevant UN resolutions, East Jerusalem remains part of the occupied Palestinian territory, and the status of Jerusalem must be resolved in permanent status negotiations, the UNESCO concluded.
