British Prime Minister Boris Johnson reiterated his opposition to Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s plans to extend sovereignty to the Jordan Valley, and parts of Judea and Samaria, calling the potential moves “damaging” to peace efforts and “contrary to international law.”
In a letter to Conservative Member of Parliament Crispin Blunt, Johnson said that he supports a “lasting resolution that ends the occupation and delivers peace,” while calling such efforts “long overdue.”
Johnson also stated that he is against any “unliteral moves.”
He said he has previously told Netanyahu that “any changes to the status quo cannot be taken forward without an agreement negotiated by the parties themselves.”
