SadaNews - Prime Minister Muhammad Mustafa stressed during his meeting today, Monday, in his office in Ramallah, with international officials, that the recent decisions of the occupation government and its ongoing measures in the West Bank aim to double annexation projects and schemes and settlement expansion, and to destroy and undermine the institutions of the State of Palestine and the two-state solution.
