An-Najah News - Israel has to choose between the two-state solution and becoming a demographic melting pot said prime Minister Muhammad Shtayyeh.

 He said at the start of the weekly cabinet meeting held in Ramallah “The Israeli occupation government must stop its colonial plans and stop seizing our lands and building thousands of settlement units,” said Shtayyeh

He added the number of settlers in the Palestinian territories, has now reached more than 750,000, and they constitute 25% of the total population of the West Bank.

adding that “it is time for Israel to choose between the two-state solution or becoming a demographic melting pot,” noting that for the first time since 1948.

The Prime Minister called on the European countries and the rest of the world to take a step towards breaking the status quo and recognize the state of Palestine.

He also added that recognizing Palestine will force Israel to stop its settlement plans, annexation, demolishing homes, Judaizing Jerusalem, and isolating Gaza.
