Liberman's Confederation Plan Rejected
Avigdor Lieberman, the leader of the "Israel Beiteinu" party, proposed that Jordan take on security and administrative responsibilities in parts of the West Bank, within the framework of an "Israeli-Jordanian Confederation." The aim of the proposal is to find an alternative to the Palestinian Authority's control over Areas A and B, while keeping Area C fully under Israeli control. The suggestion was met with angry reactions from the Israeli government, including Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and other ministers, who regarded it as giving Jordan a role in the Palestinian territories, which opposes the government's position. Meanwhile, the Jordanian Kingdom emphasized its rejection of any solution that comes at its expense, warning of the repercussions of settler expansion and its impact on the two-state solution. It considered the Israeli proposal as part of an escalatory approach against the Palestinian cause.
