More than 1,000 European parliamentarians from across political lines strongly opposed the Zionist entity’s plan to annex parts of the occupied West Bank in a letter published on Wednesday.

The lawmakers expressed "serious concerns" about the US plan that would allow ‘Israel’ to annex more 30% of the West Bank territory.

"We are deeply worried about the precedent this would set for international relations at large," the letter stated, warning of the "commensurate consequences" such a move could spark.

“We are profoundly concerned about the impact of annexation… as well as its destabilizing potential in a region on our continent's doorstep.”

"Europe must take the lead in bringing international actors together to prevent annexation and to safeguard the prospects of the two-state solution and a just resolution to the conflict," the letter added.

The letter was signed by 1,080 European parliamentarians from 25 countries.

Its signatories noted that the EU's top diplomat, Josep Borrell, has said that the ‘Israeli’ annexation of West Bank territory “could not pass unchallenged.”
