Earlier, Mladenov called for intensifying international efforts to achieve peace between Palestine and Israel.
In a speech last June on Israel's plan to annex parts of West Bank, he pointed out that this move will have major repercussions and lead to destabilization of the Palestinian territories.
He continued: "This is the time for dialogue," calling on the international community to put pressure on Israel in order not to implement this decision.
