TEHRAN (Defapress) - According to Al Jazeera, Joseph Burrell, the EU foreign policy chief, said about the statements of Smotrich: I condemn Smotrich's request to impose Israeli sovereignty over the West Bank, as this is a clear act of illegal annexation.

Burrell added that Smotrich's speech also undermines international law and violates the rights of Palestinians and threatens any opportunity to form a two-state plan.

Earlier, Smotrich stated that the time has come for the West Bank to come under the complete control of the Zionist regime during the new presidency of Donald Trump.

He said that 2025 will be the year of Israel's complete sovereignty over the West Bank.
