Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and French President Emmanuel Macron.
Paris: The issue of France calling for a ban on the supply of arms to Israel has gained momentum. After this step of France, when the Israeli Prime Minister scolded President Emmanuel Macron, Macron’s tone also changed. Let us first tell you what Israeli PM Benjamin Netanyahu told Macron…?
Netanyahu issued a statement after calling on France and other Western leaders to impose a ban on arms supplies to Israel. In it he said that “Israel would win the war even without France or its support, but then their (France or other European countries that did not help Israel) embarrassment would continue long after the war was won.” Had also asked whether there is any restriction on the weapons that Iran is supplying to Hezbollah? Then who is France to ban arms supplies to Israel? This statement of Netanyahu has pushed France on the back foot. Seeing his tough attitude, France has been forced to change its stand. President Emmanuel Macron has now issued a special message for Netanyahu, in which he has called Israel his friend.
What did Macron say in the message
After Netanyahu’s tough stance, French President Emmanuel Macron has now had to come forward for damage control. Let us tell you that Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu had criticized French President Emmanuel Macron for calling for stopping the supply of weapons to Israel for use in Gaza. Macron told France Inter radio that “the priority is that we return to a political solution and stop delivering weapons to fight in Gaza”. At a summit in Paris on Saturday, they reiterated their concern over the conflict in Gaza continuing despite the French President’s call for a ceasefire and also criticized Israel’s decision to send ground troops to Lebanon. But after Netanyahu’s counterattack, Macron has now said that Israel is a friend of France and we will always stand with it.
Netanyahu had also included other countries along with the opportunities.
Apart from France, Netanyahu also took on other European and Western leaders after imposing a ban on Israel from using weapons in Gaza. “They should be ashamed,” Netanyahu said. In a video released by his office, Netanyahu said that “Israel will win with or without their support”. But calling for an arms ban is “outrageous”. Why is Iran, which is supplying weapons to Hezbollah and Hamas, not being banned? Therefore, those talking about a ban on the supply of arms to Israel should be ashamed. Let us tell you that Macron had also said that avoiding increasing tension in Lebanon is a “priority” and “Lebanon cannot be made a new Gaza”.
Netanyahu’s office responded by saying that any country that is not standing with Israel is supporting Iran and its allies and proxies. Netanyahu said, “As Israel battles the forces of barbarism led by Iran, all civilized countries must stand firmly on Israel’s side.” Demanding a ban. Macron then said that France is a “firm friend of Israel”. Netanyahu’s response was “very different from the friendship between France and Israel”.
