Translation
On what legal basis was the State of Israel founded?
- A a resolution of the United Nations ✓ Correct answer
- B a decision of the Zionist Congress
- C a proposal of the Federal Government
- D a proposal of the USSR
Explanation
The State of Israel was proclaimed in 1948 based on the 1947 UN General Assembly Partition Plan, Resolution 181, the formal international legal basis for its founding. The Zionist Congress and any single government's proposal were not that legal basis.
Tips
- The UN Partition Plan of 1947 is the specific legal document behind it, not a congress decision or a national government's proposal.
