New Hope party leader Gideon Sa’ar criticizes yesterday’s meeting between members of the left-wing Meretz party and Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas in Ramallah, saying it was “unnecessary.”
“The Palestinian Authority is continuing to pay terrorists who murdered Jews and is acting against the State of Israel in the international arena,” Sa’ar says. “I don’t this meeting will have an effect. The government in its current form won’t act to create a Palestinian state inside the borders of the State of Israel, and that’s the important thing.”
