U.N. Chief Warns Israeli Leaders Seeking to Fully Annex West Bank

HeadlineJan 23, 2025

United Nations Secretary-General António Guterres has warned that Israeli leaders have turned their attention from Gaza to the West Bank, hoping to annex the territory once and for all. Guterres spoke Wednesday at the World Economic Forum in Davos.

Secretary-General António Guterres: “Israel, feeling emboldened by the military successes that it has had, to think that this is the moment to do the annexation of the West Bank and to keep the Gaza in a kind of a limbo situation with an unclear — unclear form of governance. It is clear for me that Israel is not fundamentally interested in Gaza. It’s fundamentally interested in the West Bank.”
