Lapid slams Abbas, says EU should track its funds

Yesh Atid head Yair Lapid tells several EU ambassadors during a meeting at the EU offices in Ramat Gan that it is “intolerable and inexcusable” for Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas to host the families of Palestinian terrorists just hours after three Palestinians killed an Israeli Border Police officer and injured a second in the capital yesterday.

In an apparent reference to Israeli human rights or left wing groups, Lapid adds that “it’s a scandal that foreign governments give money to associations and organizations whose purpose is to change the regime in Israel.”

“You are not strict enough in tracking your money. It goes to the organizations of the BDS, which are deeply involved with Hamas,” he says.
