EU slams Israel for authorizing units in E. Jerusalem, West Bank
The European Union pans the Israeli government for green-lighting construction projects in the West Bank settlement of Beit El and Jewish neighborhoods in Jerusalem beyond the 1967 green line.
The recent decision “calls into question the Israeli government’s stated commitment to a negotiated two-state solution in the Middle East Peace Process,” a EU statement reads.
“We urge the government of Israel to urgently reverse recent decisions and put an end to settlement expansion,” it continues.
