Milan, July 29 (LaPresse) – Israel will not yield to pressure from foreign countries to accept a Palestinian state. This was stated by Israeli Foreign Minister Gideon Saar in a press conference with foreign journalists. "It will not happen," he said, "no matter how much pressure is exerted on Israel." Reported by the Times of Israel. "Creating a Palestinian state today means creating a Hamas state, a jihadist state," he added, "Israel will not be the Czechoslovakia of the 21st century." The reference is to the European powers that accepted the annexation of the Sudetenland by Nazi Germany in 1938, in an attempt to appease Adolf Hitler. "We will not sacrifice our existence for the sake of countries trying to pacify the situation," Saar continued, "we will not give up our fundamental interests for the sake of the domestic politics of some countries that have lost control of their own streets."
