EU Chief warns of Israel's clear will to annex West Bank

LUXEMBOURG, Tuesday, June 25, 2024 (WAFA) - The High Representative for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy of the European Union, Joseph Borrell, said that Israel seems to have a clear will to annex the occupied West Bank little by little, warning that this certainly will not lead to peace.

"There seems to be a clear will to annex the West Bank, little by little, bit by bit; there seems to be that will and that's certainly not going to lead to peace," Josep Borrell said at a press conference following the Foreign Affairs Council meeting in Luxembourg, reports Anadolu Ajansı.

He said that a cease-fire has not been reached in Gaza three weeks after the proposal, which was supported by the international community, was passed.

In response to a question whether the war will continue, Borrell said: "It seems so, unfortunately, it is a war that is going to test the survival of Palestinians in Gaza."
