US President Donald Trump firmly opposed Israel's plan to annex the occupied territories in the West Bank along the Jordan River. This was reported by Zamin.uz.
At a press conference held at the White House on September 25, Trump clearly expressed his position on this issue. He emphasized that he would never allow Israel to annex the West Bank and stated that it was time to put an end to this process.
In response to journalists' questions about whether he had spoken with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on this topic, Trump said it did not matter whether he had talked with him or not. In his view, the main issue is to prevent Israel from carrying out the annexation.
This topic has become even more relevant against the backdrop of Western countries such as France, the United Kingdom, Canada, and Australia recognizing Palestine as a state. Additionally, Trump's statement indicates that a new phase may begin in US-Israel relations.
With this, he openly rejected the idea of annexation for the first time, demonstrating his firm position. Washington's decision has attracted significant attention on the international stage.
