Arab League condemns Netanyahu's 'Greater Israel' statements

WAM

The Arab League has strongly condemned Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's statements on the annexation of parts of the territories of sovereign Arab states, in preparation for the establishment of what he called "Greater Israel."

The League considered these statements to be a violation of the sovereignty of Arab states and an attempt to undermine security and stability in the region.

In a statement, the League announced that these remarks represent a serious threat to collective Arab national security and a evident challenge to international law and the principles of international legitimacy, all of which cannot be accepted or tolerated by the council.

Within the same context, Egypt has condemned the statements raised in some Israeli media regarding the so-called "Greater Israel," while affirming its commitment to establishing peace in the Middle East.

In a statement issued by the Egyptian Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Egypt demanded official clarifications regarding these statements due to the indications they carry and that could trigger instability.
