Turkey condemns Israel’s settlement plan aimed at dividing the West Bank and cutting it off from East Jerusalem, the Turkish Foreign Ministry says, adding the decision is a violation of international law.

“This step… totally disregards international law and United Nations resolutions; targets the State of Palestine’s territorial integrity, the basis for a two-state solution, and hopes for peace,” it says in a statement, reiterating that the establishment of an independent Palestinian state is the only way to achieve lasting peace.
