Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, this afternoon (Tuesday, 16 July 2013), in
his Jerusalem office, held consultations with Justice Minister Tzipi Livni,
Economy Minister Naftali Bennett and Deputy Foreign Minister Zeev Elkin in wake
of the intention to add conditions to contracts between the EU and the State of
Israel in the future.
Prime Minister Netanyahu said, "I would expect
those who truly want peace and stability in the region would discuss this issue
after solving more urgent regional problems such as the civil war in Syria or
Iran's race to achieve nuclear weapons. As the Prime Minister of Israel, I will
not allow the hundreds of thousands of Israelis who live in Judea and Samaria,
on the Golan Heights and in Jerusalem, our united capital, to be harmed. We will
not accept any outside diktat about our borders. This issue will be decided only
in direct negotiations between the sides."
