Right of Return
The "Right of Return" refers to the principle that individuals have the right to return to their homeland or place of origin. This concept is often associated with refugees and displaced persons who have been forced to leave their homes due to conflict, persecution, or other circumstances. It is recognized in various international laws and agreements, including the Universal Declaration of Human Rights.
In the context of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, the Right of Return is a contentious issue. Many Palestinian refugees and their descendants claim the right to return to the land they left in 1948 and 1967. This claim is a significant point of debate in peace negotiations and discussions about the future of the region.
