A White House official said that U.S. President Donald Trump opposes any move by Israel to annex the occupied West Bank, stressing that such actions would undermine regional stability and prospects for peace.
The official noted that maintaining stability in the West Bank is essential to Israel’s long-term security and aligns with President Trump’s broader objective of achieving peace in the Middle East. According to the official, unilateral steps that could inflame tensions on the ground run counter to U.S. efforts to support calm and prevent further escalation.
The remarks come amid ongoing international concern over the future of the occupied Palestinian territories and the impact of Israeli policies on the viability of a negotiated settlement. The White House has repeatedly emphasized that preserving stability remains a key pillar of U.S. engagement in the region.
