Annexation is an “existential threat” to the Palestinian people, Palestinian Authority Prime Minister Mohammed Shtayyeh said on Tuesday.
If Israel annexes part of the West Bank, he said that the Palestinians will unilaterally declare a state based on the pre-1967 lines.
Speaking to members of the Foreign Press Association in Ramallah, Shtayyeh said that if Israel moves ahead with annexation it will be a serious violation of agreements with the PA.
