Israel's West Bank settlement plans jeopardize viability of Palestinian state - Borrell

Moscow, Oct 16 (Sputnik) Israel’s announcement of plans to construct 5,000 housing units in the occupied West Bank threatens the viability of a future Palestinian state, Europe’s top diplomat Josep Borrell said in a statement.
The construction plans, made public earlier in the week, have already been blasted as illegal by the United Nations’ Special Coordinator for the Middle East Peace Process Nickolay Mladenov.
“These plans, which foresee the construction of close to 5.000 housing units, jeopardise the viability and territorial contiguity of a future Palestinian State as the outcome of a negotiated two-state solution, in line with the internationally agreed parameters,” Borrell said.
