Global Affairs Canada
Global Affairs Canada issued the following statement:
"Canada strongly condemns the Israeli security cabinet's recent decision to approve measures to expand Israeli control over the West Bank.
"These measures contravene international law, undermine the prospects for peace, and erode the viability of a Palestinian State.
"We call on Israel to reverse this decision and immediately halt settlement expansion.
"Canada firmly believes that a two-state solution - with Israelis and Palestinians living side-by-side - remains the only way forward for the long-term security of both peoples. We will continue to work with our allies and partners to support peace and stability in the region."
