The spokesman for the National Security Council at the White House, John Kirby, said, on Monday evening, that the United States has repeatedly expressed its concern about building more Israeli settlements in the West Bank.
Kirby was commenting in the daily briefing on what was published in the Israeli and American media about Tel Aviv informing Washington that it intends to promote the construction of 4,000 new settlement units.
Kirby said: We do not want to see Israeli steps that would increase tension and make it difficult to reach a two-state solution.
