Germany, Jordan and Palestinians: Blocking Israeli sovereignty now a priority

In a joint statement on Wednesday evening, German Foreign Minister Heiko Maas, Jordanian Foreign Minister Ayman Safadi and Palestinian Authority Prime Minister Mohammad Shtayyeh said that preventing Israel’s sovereignty bid was now a priority.

In the statement, which was released by the German Foreign Office following a joint video conference of the three, they went on to say that the application of sovereignty by Israel over any part of Judea and Samaria under the aegis of the U.S. “Peace to Prosperity” plan rolled out by U.S. President Donald Trump in January would be contrary to international law.
