Netanyahu Defends Son’s Comments to Macron, Tells Critics “To Hell”
Israeli Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu has come to the defense of his son, Yair Netanyahu, who recently insulted French President Emmanuel Macron. Macron had announced that France could recognize the Palestinian state, which sparked outrage from the Netanyahu family.
In a statement on his social media account, Prime Minister Netanyahu condemned his son’s actions, calling them “unacceptable.” However, he also defended Yair, stating that he is a true Zionist who cares deeply about the future of his country.
Netanyahu expressed his disagreement with Macron’s position on recognizing the Palestinian state, calling it “unacceptable.” He emphasized that the establishment of a Palestinian state is not in line with the truth and reality on the ground.
Referring to French territories around the world, Prime Minister Netanyahu criticized Macron for his stance on Israel, stating, “We will not compromise our security and will not accept moral lectures from those who oppose independence in their own territories.”
The tensions between Israel and France have escalated following Macron’s statements about recognizing the Palestinian state. Israel has long been opposed to the two-state solution and continues to occupy Palestinian territories.
In the midst of these diplomatic tensions, Yair Netanyahu’s insults towards Macron have only added fuel to the fire. With the international community closely watching these developments, the future of Israeli-French relations remains uncertain.
