The Israeli prime minister's son attacked the French president following his announcement Paris may soon recognize a Palestinian state.
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s son Yair on Saturday told French President Emmanuel Macron to “screw you,” following the announcement Paris could recognize a Palestinian state later this year.
“Screw you! Yes to independence of New Caledonia! Yes to independence to French Polynesia! Yes to independence of Corsica! Yes to independence of the Basque Country! Yes to independence of French Guinea! Stop the neo imperialism of France in west Africa!” tweeted Yair Netanyahu.
On Wednesday, Macron said that “we must move toward recognition, and we will do so in the coming months. Our aim is to chair this conference with Saudi Arabia in June, where we could finalize this movement of mutual recognition by several parties,” he said, referencing plans for a global summit on the issue in New York.
