Presidential Spokesman Nabil Abu Rudeina denounced the statements of US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo in which he said today, Wednesday, that the decision to annex the West Bank is a decision taken by the Israeli government, and described Pompeo's statements as a green light for the occupation Israeli to continue settlement.
Abu Rudeina said in a statement published by "Wafa" agency that "only the Palestinians will decide the fate of their lands on which they will establish their independent state with East Jerusalem as its capital, and there will be no security or stability without the rights of the Palestinian people approved by international legitimacy resolutions."
He added that "Pompeo's statements confirm that the United States cannot be a mediator in any peace process between us and the Israelis, and it is a green light for the Israeli government to continue its settlement operations and annexation of Palestinian lands."
He continued, "These statements constitute a departure from all international norms, charters and laws, and will not achieve peace in any way."
Abu Rudeina affirmed the position of Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas that "any Israeli action to annex any part of the Palestinian Territory will have serious repercussions for security and stability in the region."
