Germany's Merz says West Bank settlement project 'big mistake'

German Chancellor Friedrich Merz on Tuesday said a new West Bank construction project being pushed by the Israeli government to the east of Jerusalem is a "big mistake".

"The German government urgently calls for such steps to be refrained from," Merz said, claiming that advancing the so-called E1 project would "complicate the two-state solution".
