Arab League dismisses PM’s two-state remarks
Add ToI as a Preferred Source on GoogleThe Arab League head dismisses as electioneering Netanyahu’s vow to rule out a Palestinian state if reelected, saying there would be global pressure for a peace deal.
Netanyahu’s statements would “not be the policies of the future Israeli government,” says Nabi Arabi, secretary general of the 22-nation bloc in an interview with AFP, adding: “We will have to wait and see.”
“I believe personally that he made that statement about… no two states to gain the votes of the extremists, particularly those Russian immigrants who went to Israel in the last 10, 15 years,” Arabi says.
