Yesh Atid MK Aliza Lavie says that small isolated settlements will be “folded into” settlement blocs in any future agreement.

Speaking on Galei Yisrael radio, Lavie says that at present, questions about “pinpoint issues” in Yesh Atid’s diplomatic platform, so long as Israel “does not have a partner for negotiations,” only serve to “mislead the public.”

Lavie enumerates her party’s main positions regarding the Palestinians: “Two states for two peoples, we will certainly keep settlement blocs, and we oppose the division of Jerusalem.” She adds that the discussion over the past few days “has become who gives away land. We are not there yet. Let’s talk openly – there is no negotiation taking place at the moment.”
