MOSCOW: Russia has expressed its firm objection to Israel?s plan to expand its illegal settlements on the occupied Palestinian territories, including in the occupied al-Quds.
?Moscow reaffirms Russia?s principled position on the illegality of Israel?s settlement activities on the Palestinian territories, including in East Jerusalem,? said a Russian Foreign Ministry statement on Saturday.
The statement said Israel?s announced plan for the construction of over 1,100 housing units in 20 West Bank settlements would further undermine international efforts to bring about a peaceful resolution to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. It said the expansion of settlements on lands designated as occupied by the international community would deprive Palestinians of their right to establish an independent state on the territories.
?We believe that Israel?s stance is not conducive to the creation of conditions for opening the direct talks between the Israelis and the Palestinians during which all the problems relating to the final status should be settled,? said the statement.Israel captured the West Bank and the East Jerusalem al-Quds in the 1967 War and later occupied them. The regime has defied recurrent international calls for a halt to settlement activity in those areas, saying it does not recognize the Palestinian Authority, which controls the West Bank, as an independent state.
