Secretary of State John Kerry accused Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu of presiding over the most “right wing” coalition is Israeli history, leading to policies that would destroy the two-state coalition the United States supports.
“The Israeli prime minister publicly supports a two-state solution, but his current coalition is the most right wing in Israeli history, with an agenda driven by the most extreme elements,” Kerry said. “The result is that policies of this government, which the prime minister himself just described as more committed to settlements than any in Israel’s history, are leading in the opposite direction. They’re leading towards one state.”
