PM fears resolution from Paris confab will be brought to Security Council

Netanyahu is downplaying the “futile” Paris peace summit on January 15, but is concerned resolutions from the confab will be translated into a UN Security Council resolution.

“The Paris summit is a futile summit,” says Netanyahu. “But there are signs they will try to turn resolutions reached there into another resolution at the Security Council. Therefore, the main effort is to prevent another UN resolution and this will preoccupy us in the coming period.”
