Israel “Annexation is a serious violation of international law” criticized by UN experts June 17, 8:48
A UN human rights expert issued a joint statement on the 16th and criticized Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu's policy to annex the part of the Palestinian Interim Autonomous Region as a serious violation of international law.
Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu has a policy of annexing approximately 30% of the West Bank, including Jewish settlements that have been constructed in violation of international law.
About this, 67 experts appointed by the United Nations to investigate and recommend human rights issues around the world issued a joint statement on the 16th at the time of the UN Human Rights Council.
According to the statement, Israel's policy is "a serious violation of the United Nations Charter and others. It violates the principle that the United Nations has repeatedly confirmed that it is not allowed to acquire territory by war or force." And criticizes it for violating international law.
As for the US-based Trump administration, which is leaning toward Israel, "it supports and promotes the illegal annexation of occupied territories and is deeply concerned. The United States should oppose the violation of the basic principles of international law." Asking for restraint.
Although Israel wants to incorporate the Trump administration's cooperation and realize the annexation at an early stage, the Palestinian side is repelling, and Europe and other countries are cautiously raising concerns from the international community.
