Israel's far-right finance minister has vowed to annex Israeli settlements in the occupied West Bank in 2025. Bezalel Smotrich, who is in charge of settlements, said he would push the Israeli government to work with the incoming Trump administration on the matter. For in-depth analysis and a deeper perspective on the US and Israel's newly-evolving hard-line positions on West Bank settlements, FRANCE 24's Yinka Oyetade is joined by Lorenzo Kamel, Associate Professor of Global History and History of the Middle East and North Africa at the University of Turin. He says indications suggest Trump will fully back the selective annexation of West Bank settlements.
