“We will not stay there while the Government of Netanyahu continues these blatant actions. If Israel does not cease the renewed military offensive and does not raise its restrictions with humanitarian aid, we will take other concrete actions in response,” they added.
The rare and joint intervention by British Prime Minister Keir Starmer, French President Emmanuel Macron and Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney obtained a strong Netanyahu reprimand, who struck the three leaders in a statement on his own on Monday evening.
“By asking Israel to put an end to a defensive war for our survival before Hamas terrorists on our border were destroyed and demanding a Palestinian state, London, Ottowa (SIC) and Paris leaders offer a huge price for the genocidal attack against Israel on October 7 while inviting more atrocities,” Netanyahu on social networks.
“Israel accepts the vision of President Trump and urges all European leaders to do the same,” he added, referring apparently to the US leader’s proposal to resume Gaza, to expel its resident Palestinian population and to rearrange it. The plan was returned by the Middle East and the European countries and the United Nations, which warned against “any form of ethnic cleaning”, but was quickly adopted by Netanyahu.
The British-French Canadian declaration reflects a global sour in the attitudes of the Western allies of Israel towards his military grinding offensive in Gaza, which he launched after October 7, 2023 of Hamas, a cross-border raid killed 1,200 Israelis.
Macron publicly sirmed with Netanyahu last year after calling for delivery to Israel and again last month when he floated the French recognition of a Palestinian state.
