US State Department spokesman Matthew Miller said on Monday evening that expanding settlements harms the chances of reaching a two-state solution.
In his daily conference, Miller believed that this contributes to tensions in the region, calling on Israel to stop these actions.
This comes at a time when Maariv newspaper reported earlier today that the Israeli Planning and Construction Committee will consider a plan to build 400 settlement units in occupied Jerusalem.
