The spokesman, who declined to be named, said in a statement received by the Palestine News Network that "our position has not changed."
"As we have consistently made clear, we are ready to recognize Israeli actions to extend sovereignty and apply Israeli law to areas of the West Bank that expect the vision (deal of the century) to be part of the State of Israel, in the context of the Israeli government´s agreement to negotiate with the Palestinians as outlined in President Trump´s vision," he said.
"The annexation will be in the context of an offer for the Palestinians to achieve a state based on conditions, specific regional circumstances and dimensions, and generous economic support," he added.
The US official described it as "an unprecedented and very useful opportunity for the Palestinians."
He noted that last January´s U.S. consultations with Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu and The President of the "Azq and White" Gantz party "clearly showed that we have a partner for peace in Israel." .
Washington continues to consult closely with the Government of Israel on this issue, as well as on a wide range of other issues, the spokesman said.
"The only realistic way forward to end this conflict is through negotiations aimed at achieving a comprehensive and lasting peace," the State Department spokesman said.
He called on all members of the international community to "put aside yesterday´s talking points and carefully consider the U.S. peace plan."
"It´s time for bold action, not for the slogans consumed," he said.
The Secretary of State responded to a question at a press conference at the U.S. State Department on Wednesday, April 22, 2020, about the administration´s position on the Israeli government´s intention to annex the occupied territories on which settlements are built in the West Bank and the Jordan Valley, saying that "the question of annexing the West Bank is ultimately a decision taken by the Israelis," stressing that "this decision is up to Israel."

Palestinian local media also learned from an informed source (Monday, April 27, 2002) that the message of the U.S. administration to the new Israeli government is that while the U.S. administration, since it announced President Trump´s peace plan on January 28, recognizes Israel´s right to impose its sovereignty over Jewish communities in the Judea and Samaria region (the Biblical name of the occupied West Bank), and its right to maintain control over the Jordan Valley for security reasons, it is better The Israeli government will not do so (including the Jordan Valley and parts of the West Bank) on July 1, as promised by Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, especially in light of the complexities posed by the proliferation of Coved19 in the United States, Israel and around the world."
"I am honored to say that the decades-long struggle has paid off," Netanyahu said in a recorded speech broadcast at the 100th anniversary of the San Remo Conference (1920), noting that "three months ago, Trump´s peace plan recognized Israel´s rights to all of Judea and Samaria (occupied West Bank), and President Trump pledged to recognize Israel´s sovereignty over Israeli communities (settlements) there and in the Jordan Valley."
"Two months from now, I am confident that this pledge will be fulfilled, that we will be able to celebrate another historic moment in the history of Zionism, and after a century of San Remo, the promise of Zion will be fulfilled," Netanyahu said at the end of the conference, which was held by the European Alliance for Israel.
At the San Remo Conference in April 1920, resolutions adopted at the Paris Peace Conference were ratified by the Council of European States in the aftermath of World War I, including the ratification of the British Mandate in Palestine and the adoption of the 1917 Balfour Declaration, which gives Palestinian territories a future Jewish state.
