Israel slams France for Palestinian State comments - from TRUNEWS

(TRUNEWS) Israeli officials slammed a plan by France to recognize a Palestinian state, if a deadlock continues in the peace talks.

On Friday, French Foreign Minister Laurent Fabius said France will organize talks, according to The Jerusalem Post.

“France will engage in the coming weeks in the preparation of an international conference bringing together the parties and their main partners, American, European, Arab, notably to preserve and make happen the solution of two states,” he said.

Fabius justified France’s idea because of the country’s status as a permanent member of the United Nations Security Council requires France to keep up efforts for a two-state solution.

Israel claims those statement encourage the Palestinians not to negotiate.

The moves come as more countries speak out against Israel, as reported by TRUNEWS
