Occupied Jerusalem-SANA
Palestinian Prime Minister Muhammad Shtayyeh called on the international community to take firm stances to stop the Israeli occupation's settlement plans in the Palestinian territories.
Shtayyeh, who started a European tour today, welcomed the statement issued by the European Union, which calls on the occupation entity to stop its settlement plans in the occupied Palestinian territories and to retract a new plan to establish about 1,300 settlement units in the West Bank, according to Wafa Agency.
Shtayyeh considered that international laxity in dealing with the violations of the international law and international humanitarian law encourages the occupation entity to continue its attacks and violations against the Palestinians and to seize their lands and properties.
