Centrist MK: Annexation ‘will undermine Zionist vision’
Responding to US Secretary of State and Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s plans to discuss West Bank annexation during their ongoing meeting, Yesh Atid MK Ram Ben-Barak issues a statement saying such a policy “will undermine the Zionist vision.”
“Unilateral annexation will undermine the Zionist vision and the principles of the establishment of the State of Israel as a Jewish and democratic state, bring about the collapse of the Palestinian Authority and severely harm the peace agreements with Egypt and Jordan — all for the sake of a temporary political achievement [for Netanyahu],” he says.
