Lapid says UN ‘lost its last shred of dignity’
Add ToI as a Preferred Source on GoogleYesh Atid chairman Yair Lapid slams the UN vote rejecting US recognition of Jerusalem as Israel’s capital.
“The UN lost its last shred of dignity today. Jerusalem is the capital of Israel, it always was and it always will be. No hypocritical vote will change that. The decision that was taken today will be wiped from the pages of history,” he says.
“I’m saddened to see our European friends bow to pressure and stand alongside supporters of terror and mass murder instead of standing beside the only true democracy in the Middle East,” he adds.
