The US will push back against any Israeli attempts to annex parts of the West Bank, US Ambassador Tom Nides warned as the Religious Zionist Party has demanded steps in that direction in coalition talks. “Our position is quite clear: We do not support annexation,” Nides told KAN Bet. “We will fight any attempt to do so, which is by the way the position of most of the Arab countries.”

Nides’s comments come as Religious Zionist Party leader Bezalel Smotrich demanded that Israeli settlements be governed by the relevant ministries, rather than the IDF’s Civil Administration, as part of the next coalition agreement.
