"Settlement construction in these areas will cut the geographic and territorial contiguity between east Jerusalem and the West Bank. Construction in E1 will sever the connection between northern and southern West Bank," the statement read.

"We call on both parties to engage in a dialogue and to refrain from any unilateral action that undermines the viability of the two-state solution."
