A direct channel of dialogue between the leaders of the settlement in Judea and Samaria and the US administration is expected to lead to changes in the sovereignty map - "Israel Today", according to sources in the details, learned.

The move comes as a result of severe criticism from local authorities in the Judea and Samaria Area map.

Meanwhile, the prime minister himself hinted yesterday that the US has changed its stance on the upcoming implementation of the peace plan and that it is not ripe for that. "I do not want to expand the speech, but America is not where it was five months ago," Netanyahu said at the meeting Closed with the leadership of the settlers in Judea and Samaria. Attendees at the meeting were impressed that given the internal problems in the US, the Trump administration does not currently have the attention to engage in the peace plan - though Netanyahu did not explicitly mention it.

The meeting was attended by Knesset Speaker Yariv Levin, a member of the Israeli-American Mapping Committee; Chairman of the Yesha Council and Jordan Valley Council Chairman, David Elchaini; Deputy Yigal Dilmoni; Binyamin Israel Gantz, Head of Samaria Council, Yossi Dagan; Gush Etzion Gush Shlomo Neeman; Mount Hebron Mayor Yochai Demri; Head of Beit El Shai Alon; Mayor of Ma'aleh Adumim Bani Kashriel; Chairman Amana Ze'ev Member (Zambish) and more.

The settlers presented the many difficulties that the emerging map presents. They made it clear to Netanyahu that they would not agree to differentiate between the large and small communities and would not accept a construction freeze in any version. "There have been changes in the American plan," said the colonial leaders. "The things that are being said today are not the things that were said in January when the plan was introduced. We will not abandon any settlement in the back and will not accept enclaves that suffocate the inner settlements. .

Some have reinforced the prime minister, noting that he is able to persuade Americans to make the necessary changes. The Prime Minister responded that the Trump plan includes achievements for Israel that have never been, and that discussions with the Americans are still ongoing.

The parties agreed to continue the dialogue, but the heads of the settlers came out with a hard feeling. Some of them told "Israel Today" that alongside their assessment of the prime minister - they felt he did not answer their questions. Yesha Council Chairman David Alhaini said at the end of the meeting: "We have not received any new information. We are not taking the habit off the gas and are continuing the fight against the establishment of a Palestinian state and against the map."

Meanwhile, Jordanian Foreign Minister Ayman Safadi again warned that applying sovereignty by Israel "would be disastrous for Jordan-Israel relations." However, the Jordanian official refrained from announcing that the move would violate the peace agreement between the states, calling on the international community to "put pressure on Israel to avoid the annexation plan and restart the peace process based on the two-state vision."
