| West Bank settlements not illegal, Pompeo announces in historic US policy shift |
| 2019-11-19 |
| [Jpost] In a historic reversal of US policy, the Trump administration announced on Monday that it does not view Israeli settlements in the West Bank as illegal. The policy change was announced by Secretary of State Mike Pompeo in Washington. "After carefully studying all sides of the legal debate, this administration agrees with President Reagan," Pompeo said in reference to Ronald Reagan’s position that settlements were not inherently illegal. "The establishment of Israeli civilian settlements in the West Bank is not per se inconsistent with international law," Pompeo said. |
