Saudi Arabia has condemned “in the strongest possible terms” Israel’s approval of the construction of settlements, Anadolu Agency reports.
“The Kingdom also denounces the Israeli Foreign Minister’s statements preventing the establishment of a Palestinian state, considering them a violation of international law,” the Foreign Ministry said in a statement.
It emphasised that these decisions and statements confirm the Israeli government’s continuation of “illegal expansionist policies, its obstruction of peace efforts, and the serious threat to the possibility of a two-state solution.”
“This requires the international community to assume its legal and moral responsibilities, protect the Palestinian people, and fulfil their legitimate rights, including recognition of the Palestinian state,” the statement added.
