All the settlements Israel don put for West Bank since 1967, no matter if Israel approve dem or not, international law consider am illegal. Twenty-one countries, including Britain, France, Australia, Canada, Italy, and many European countries condemn this move strongly. Their foreign ministers talk say the plan go spoil any chance of two-state solution because e go divide any future Palestinian state and block Palestinians from getting to Jerusalem.
