Description
This stamp with a strong memorial and diplomatic charge testifies to Tunisia's constant solidarity with the Palestinian cause. The illustration juxtaposes the Dome of the Rock in Jerusalem, a symbol of spirituality, with a barbed wire grid evoking the tragedies of Sabra and Shatila. A dove in the colors of the Palestinian flag flies over the scene, carrying a message of hope and the quest for peace. By issuing this stamp, the Tunisian Republic reaffirms its moral and political commitment on the international scene, linking its philatelic history to issues of justice and regional sovereignty.
