West Bank Annexation Won’t Go Unanswered - French FM

By Staff, Agencies

French Foreign Minister Jean-Yves Le Drian said that the annexation of the West Bank cannot go unanswered.

Le Drian made the remarks on Tuesday, calling on the ‘Israeli’ occupation regime to refrain from any unilateral measures.

Referring to Netanyahu's decision to annex part of the West Bank to other occupied territories, Le Drian asked the Zionist officials to abandon this plan.

“Annexing the West Bank could not go unanswered,” he added.

The Zionist regime is seeking to annex more than 30% of the West Bank to its occupied territories in the near future, an act of aggression that has been criticized by many countries.

This move is based on US President Donald Trump's controversial plan for Palestine, so-called "Deal of the Century" which was announced a few months ago and angered the Palestinians and was widley rejected by the international community.

As part of the plan, the Zionist regime is allowed to annex the West Bank towns and the strategic Jordanian Valley to the occupied Palestinian territories.

Some European countries have threatened to change the basis of their relations with Tel Aviv if the decision is implemented.
