Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu spoke by phone with French President Emmanuel Macron. During the conversation, the Israeli prime minister strongly rejected the idea of ​​creating a Palestinian state, stressing that such a decision would be a significant incentive for terrorism, Netanyahu's office reported.

"A Palestinian state created next to Israeli settlements would become a springboard for Iranian terrorism," Netanyahu said.

According to him, the overwhelming majority of Israelis are categorically against such a prospect.

Earlier, Macron announced that France may recognize the state of Palestine in June.
