West Bank of Jordan Jewish Settlement Activities Not regarded as violation of international law

US Secretary of State Pompeio held a press conference on the 18th and announced that Israeli Jewish settlements on the West Bank of Palestine were not considered a violation of international law. The former Obama administration criticized colonization activities as a barrier to peace in the Middle East. This time, as the Trump administration has effectively changed this policy, it is expected that the Palestine and the international community will rebound in the form of renewing their position to defend Israel.
