Netanyahu: Abbas ‘continues to run away from peace’

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu dismisses PA President Mahmoud Abbas’ speech to the UN Security Council calling for a “multilateral international mechanism” to facilitate Israeli-Palestinian peace talks.

“Abbas didn’t say anything new. He continues to run away from peace and continues to pay terrorists and their families $347 million [each year],” says Netanyahu.
