RAMALLAH, Tuesday, March 3, 2020 (WAFA) – The speech Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu gave following the announcement of the exit poll results last night in which he declared that he is going to annex the Jordan Valley and the settlements in the occupied Palestinian territories after he forms his government should worry not only the Palestinians, but the entire world, the Palestinian Foreign Ministry said in a statement.
“The Foreign Ministry, while condemning in the strongest terms the statements and positions Netanyahu has made in his victory speech, expresses its deep concern regarding the results of the Israeli elections and warns against policies and steps Netanyahu said he will take in the event he succeeds in forming a government,” said the ministry.
It said that such remarks by Netanyahu should worry anyone who claims to be keen on achieving peace according to the two-state solution and not just the Palestinian people and their leadership.
The ministry called on the international community to take a stand from the Israeli hostility toward the Palestinian people, negotiations and the two-state solution, stressing that the credibility of the United Nations, its institutions and resolutions are being now put to the test.
