Palestinian presidency welcomes UAE’s rejection of Israeli plan to annex West Bank

The Palestinian presidency has commended the UAE’s stance rejecting Israeli plans to annex the occupied West Bank. “We highly appreciate the stance of the state of the UAE in rejecting the Israeli measures to annex any parts of the West Bank, considering it a red line for the Emirates, which undermines regional integration and destroys the two-state solution,” Palestinian Vice President Hussein Al Sheikh said in a statement. The UAE told Israel that annexation would be a “red line” and undermine the vision and spirit of the Abraham Accords.
