MUSCAT, Sunday, September 15, 2019 (WAFA) – Oman announced yesterday its rejection of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu‘s recent statements which threatened to annex the Jordan Valley region in the occupied West Bank.
"Oman reiterates its rejection of Netanyahu‘s statements and confirms its support to the Palestinian people in all efforts to establish an independent Palestinian state with East Jerusalem as its capital," the Omani Ministry of Foreign Affairs said in a statement.
Netanyahu said last week that he would annex the Jordan Valley in the occupied West Bank if he was re-elected in the September 17 election.
His statements were strongly condemned by Palestinian and Arab leaders.
