France calls on “Israel” to abandon ‘E1’ colonial project

PARIS, Aug. 17 (YPA) – The French Foreign Ministry called on “Israel” to abandon the E1 project, which aims to expand settlements seized from Palestinian citizens in East Jerusalem.

In a statement, the French Foreign Ministry condemned the Israeli settlement plan in the E1 area, which would separate Jerusalem from the West Bank.

The statement called on “Israel” to abandon this project, which constitutes a serious violation of international law.

It warned that its implementation would divide the West Bank in two and seriously undermine the two-state solution.

The statement stressed that the two-state solution is the only solution that guarantees lasting peace and security for Israelis and Palestinians.
