The Jordanian Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Expatriates today condemned the approval of the Israeli occupation authorities to build 3,557 new settlement housing units inside the Occupied Palestinian Territories.
The official spokesperson for the ministry, Ambassador Haitham Abu Al-Ful, confirmed that this step is a grave breach of international law and the resolutions of international legitimacy, foremost of which is Security Council Resolution No. 2334, stressing that the settlement policy is rejected and condemned.
He also said that settlement construction and expansion undermine the foundations of peace and the chances of achieving a comprehensive and just peace on the basis of the two-state solution in accordance with the resolutions of international legitimacy.
