Macron to Netanyahu: Israel’s Creation Was a UN Decision

French President Emmanuel Macron has reminded Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu that Israel’s establishment was based on a United Nations resolution. Speaking during a cabinet meeting, Macron emphasized that Netanyahu should recognize this historical context, referencing the UN General Assembly’s 1947 decision to partition Palestine into Jewish and Arab states.
Macron’s comments come amidst rising tensions between France and Israel, particularly after the Israeli ambassador to France was summoned over Israel’s actions against UN peacekeepers, which have included repeated attacks. The French president has urged Israel to respect UN resolutions and has insisted that halting the export of weapons used in conflicts in Gaza and Lebanon is crucial for peace.
Macron specifically highlighted the need for accountability, stating, “Mr. Netanyahu must not forget that his country was created by a decision of the UN,” reinforcing the importance of adhering to international agreements.
