US Vice President: Israel will not annex the West Bank

US Vice President Jay DeVance confirmed, before leaving the occupying state, that it would not annex The West Bank, the day after the Knesset voted in favor of discussing two draft laws aimed at expanding Israeli sovereignty over it.

Vance said at the conclusion of his visit "If this vote was just a political maneuver, it was a very stupid political maneuver, and I personally felt a little insulted by it".

He added "The West Bank will not be annexed to Israel, and the policy of the (Donald) Trump administration is that the West Bank will not be annexed to Israel, and that is our continuing policy.".
