Austria urges Israel to stop settlements
Austria has called on Israel to immediately withdraw its new settlement plans in the West Bank, specifically the "E1" project, because they violate international law and hinder the prospects for a two-state solution. Austrian Chancellor Sebastian Kurz affirmed that settlement expansion is illegal, emphasizing his country's firm opposition to it. This came as part of a joint statement signed by Western leaders condemning Israel's decision to issue tenders for the construction of new settlement units, considering the move a threat to the peace process and the two-state solution.
