Jordan condemns Israel's decision to expand settlements

Amman, June 19 : Jordan's Ministry of Foreign Affairs has condemned the Israeli government's decision to expedite construction and expansion of settlements by granting a "hardline minister control over settlement planning". Describing the settlement expansion and displacement of residents as a blatant violation and a grave breach of the international law, Sinan Majali, the ministry spokesman, called for immediate action by the international community to halt Israeli unilateral measures, Xinhua news agency reported, citing a ministry statement. The Israeli practices also undermine the foundations of peace and the prospects for a two-state solution, Majali said. /IANS
