Borrell: Smotrich's statements on annexation of the West Bank undermine international law

GAZA, November, 11, 2024 (WAFA) – The High Representative of the European Union for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy, Josep Borrell, condemned the statements of the far-right Israeli Finance Minister, Bezalel Smotrich, that 2025 will be the "year of annexation" of the occupied West Bank.

Borrell said in a post on his account on X , that he "unequivocally condemns" the statements of the Israeli minister.

He added, "Such statements undermine international law, violate the rights of the Palestinians and threaten the possibility of a two-state solution."

Smotrich pledged in a speech he delivered while chairing a meeting of the "Religious Zionism" party yesterday that 2025 will be the year of Israeli sovereignty over the West Bank.
