(MENAFN- Nam News Network) RAMALLAH, Palestine, Jan 19 (NNN-WAFA) - An official of the Palestine Liberation Organisation (PLO), accused Israeli Prime Minister, Benjamin Netanyahu, of advancing land annexation plans in the West Bank, for bigger chances of winning the election.
"If the perpetual occupation/annexation plan of Netanyahu and (U.S. Ambassador to Israel David) Friedman is released before the Israeli elections, it means green light to Netanyahu to begin the annexation of the Jordan Valley, Dead Sea shores, then say: I got you Jerusalem, Golan Heights, Jordan Valley, vote for me," tweeted Saeb Erekat, secretary general of the PLO.
"The whole Middle East can burn, if Netanyahu can be re-elected," he warned.
Last Nov, Netanyahu vowed to annex parts of the West Bank and impose Israeli sovereignty over settlements in the occupied territory, right after U.S. Secretary of State, Mike Pompeo, said, Washington no longer views Jewish settlements in the West Bank as illegal.- NNN-WAFA
