Blue and White MK: We’re for annexing settlement blocs and Jordan Valley
Blue and White MK Eitan Ginzburg tells Radio 103 FM that his party “is in favor of applying [Israeli] sovereignty over the Jordan Valley and the settlement blocs, in coordination with Jordan and the Palestinians.”
He does not explain how he plans to coordinate the move with Jordan and the Palestinians, who have vehemently come out against the move.
“Things have to be done in agreement [with them]… That’s why Benny Gantz is defense minister and Gabi Ashkenazi is foreign minister. The maps [outlining the parameters of annexation] will be drawn in the Defense Ministry,” Ginzburg continues.
