BERLIN, Nov 18 (Reuters) - German Chancellor Olaf Scholz criticised Israel's settlement policy in the occupied West Bank on Saturday and repeated calls for a two state solution for Israel and Palestinians.
"We don't want any new settlements in the West Bank, no violence by settlers against the Palestinians in the West Bank," Scholz said during a visit to Nuthetal in Brandenburg state.
The best outcome for Israelis and Palestinians remains the two-state solution, he said.
"If some in Israeli politics distance themselves from this, we will not support them," Scholz said.
