Jordan's King Abdullah II says if Israel goes ahead with the idea of annexing all the settlements in the West Bank it would be a ``disaster'' for attempts to find any two-state solution with the Palestinians. Speaking after talks with German Chancellor Angela Merkel Tuesday, Abdullah said he was ``extremely concerned'' about Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's vow to annex all the West Bank settlements.
He says it will ``directly impact'' the relationship between Israel and Jordan, and Israel and Egypt, and that ``these types of statements are... a disaster to any attempt to move forward to the two-state solution.''
