Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has condemned disparaging comments made by Israel’s deputy foreign minister against U.S. Jews, saying that “Diaspora Jews are dear to us and an inseparable part of our people.”
“There is no room for such attacks and these comments do not represent Israel’s position,” Netanyahu said about Tzipi Hotevely’s criticism, who serves as his deputy in his capacity as foreign minister.
