The rights

The Assembly reaffirmed the inalienable rights of the Palestinian people in Palestine, including the right to self-determination without external interference and the right to national independence and sovereignty. It reaffirmed also the inalienable right of the Palestinians to return to their homes and property from which they had been displaced and uprooted, and called for their return; and it asked the Secretary-General to establish contacts with the Palestine Liberation Organization on all matters concerning the question of Palestine. The same day, in resolution 3237, it took up observer status for the PLO.
