Former President Donald Trump has made strong statements asserting that he will not permit Israel, under Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, to annex the West Bank. During various addresses and diplomatic discussions, Trump emphasized that the annexation would not happen, promising Arab and Muslim leaders that he would block such efforts. His remarks come as Netanyahu prepares to address the UN General Assembly and amid discussions within Israel regarding potential annexation plans. Trump has stated that the situation is critical, warning that actions towards annexation would face significant opposition from the United States and regional partners, with Saudi Arabia outright rejecting the idea as a red line.
