It blesses the Syrian Arab Republic for its victories, the restoration of its Arab relations, and the Islamic Republic of Iran for its strength, presence and glory, and the reconciliation with the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.

The Gathering and its branches spread in (73) countries will keep pace with the victories of the axis of resistance, publicizing it and introducing it by all means and through creative interaction with free peoples and nations, and their social, media and political activities.
The assembly is committed to supporting and supporting the armed uprising of the Palestinian people in the West Bank and Palestine by all means and capabilities.
Dealing with the ongoing rounds of war between Gaza and the temporary entity after the battle of Saif al-Quds, the Unity of the Arenas, The Unity of the Fronts, and the round of Revenge of The Free as the ongoing war to liberate Palestine from the sea to the river through rounds, gaining points, and introducing what the resistance axis and its factions have achieved from moving to the era of the comprehensive attack and completing the preparations in preparation for the great war; The war to liberate Palestine from the sea to the river.
The conference saw in the Arab reconciliations, the reconciliation between the Islamic Republic of Iran and the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, the presence of Syria at the Arab summit, and the speech of President Dr. Bashar al-Assad, transformations of enormous importance that lay the foundation for a qualitative Arab and Islamic era and a promising future for Arabs, Muslims, and free people in the world.
The conference deals with the alleged sanctions as an unjust war of aggression, just as the word “sanctions” contradicts international law, the Bill of Human Rights, and international covenants. It is better to adopt the words of Article 40 of the Charter, “that is, temporary measures,” which only gives the Security Council the right to take them in the event of a threat to peace and international security.
The conference stresses the need to exert efforts and mobilize forces to bring down the unjust war of sieges that aims to annihilate people around the world. It calls for the establishment of all possible types of events, including seminars, meetings, sit-ins, and demonstrations that expose the aggressive US policy in support of terrorism in the world. It calls on the free Arab, Islamic and global countries, and peoples to rebel against the United States of America’s decisions and dictates, especially Lebanon and Iraq, to begin breaking the siege on Syria, and to activate exchanges and interactive inter-relationships between countries and peoples for the good of people and to meet their material and spiritual needs without restrictions.
The conference considers normalization and involvement in the Abrahamic project an act of treason and deals with the countries and groups involved in it as traitors and conspirators against the people and the Palestinian cause, and against the future of the Arab and Islamic nation.
The conference stands in solidarity with Russia in its special military operation in Ukraine and considers it a very important development that enhances the transformation of the resistance into a global option that integrates with the axis of resistance, its countries, and what it has reached. The special military operation constitutes a qualitative step to bury the aggressive and unjust Anglo-Saxon world that caused disasters, pandemics, wars, and plundering the wealth of the peoples of the world. And a qualitative indication of the birth of a new world free from colonialism, arrogance, and aggression.
The conference considers the Chinese role in the region and the world important and historical transformations that enhance the rise of Eurasia and contribute to the rise and liberation of nations to establish a just and humane world order that will end the centuries of Atlantic tyranny.
The Conference Supports the peoples of Latin America, the Caribbean and the peoples of Africa who rise to expel the occupiers and their tools and liberate themselves from the United States of America and Euro-Atlantic hegemony that oppressed, plundered wealth and impoverished peoples, including support for the victory of Mali and Burkina Faso in liberation from European hegemony.
The Conference condemns the efforts and attempts by the United States to ignite wars and fires in Asia and target China, Democratic People’s Republic of Korea, and people seeking liberation from hegemony and domination.
The Conference condemns the attempts made by the United States of America to create aggressive alliances in East Asia, the Pacific and Eastern Europe to ignite wars and tensions that lead to the destruction of the world.
The Conference condemns the submission of the dominant European elites to United States of America’s dictates to impoverish and plunder the peoples of Europe and plunge them into war tensions.
The eleventh conference of the Global Gathering in Support of the Choice of Resistance decided to increase the levels of networking and to interact with the peoples and liberation movements in the world and work to expand the role of the Gathering and establish branches in most countries of the world and interact with the liberating political and social forces, movements and groups and reach (114) branches within a year.
The Conference considers the act of resistance, however and wherever it takes place, as a revolutionary, social, humane, liberating act, and a commitment to the teachings and books of heaven to achieve the will of God Almighty, embodying the biography of the prophets, messengers, righteous people, and resistance fighters from among the free people of the world, and the task of gathering wherever it is found and where possible to engage in resistance, support its choice, and strive to make it a unified global force in the face of injustice, aggression, occupations, and robbery operations to which nations and peoples are exposed.
The Conference calls for exercising all forms of support towards the captives’ movement in Palestine and mobilizing forces to release the captives and obtain their freedom, and work in all institutions and bodies with competence to expose Zionist aggression and expose the condemned inhuman and illegal crimes and practices.
The Gathering supports the struggle of the Yemeni people to achieve their legitimate and just demands for the liberation of their land, national unity, independence and sovereignty, and to work to end the unjust war and their suffering, to achieve stability and progress, and to liberate all their lands, south and north.
Adopt the case of President Ahmed Abdallah Mohamed Sambi, who is unjustly detained in the prisons of the Comoros, and work for his immediate release.
