UN Security Council Resolution 242 adopted on November 22, 1967, is the cornerstone for what it calls “a just and lasting peace” that recognizes Israel’s need for “secure and recognized boundaries.” The resolution became the foundation for future peace negotiations.
No other nation in the world, acting rationally, has relinquished territories acquired from an aggressor in an act of self-defense.
