U.S. President Donald Trump has assured Thursday that he will not allow Israel to annex the West Bank "Enough is enough." He has also made it known that he has spoken on the phone with Israeli Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu. 

At an event in the White House, journalists asked him about his words this week to French President Emmanuel Macron or leaders of Muslim countries. Trump reiterated what he said to those envoys and underlined that he will not allow Israel to annex the West Bank.

"I will not allow Israel to annex the West Bank. That's enough. It's time to stop." The Republican leader added. Dator Monday Trump will receive Netanyahu at the White House.

Last year, the International Court of Justice ruled that the occupation of the West Bank is illegal. 

Trump has been opposed to the recognition of the State of Palestine by several countries in recent days. Today, 157 of the 193 states represented at the United Nations recognize Palestine as a state.
