    MFA Spokesperson following Norway's decision to refuse use of Norwegian funds to open Center for Women named after a Palestinian terrorist:

    Norway has done the right thing. Standing strongly against the positive commemoration of terrorists is an essential part of the international effort to eradicate terrorism.

    Israel suggests that all members of the international community check where money invested in the PA ends up, and expects all other partners in this project to follow Norway's example.
