The Palestinian ministry of foreign affairs has strongly criticized the speech Israeli premier Benjamin Netanyahu delivered recently at the UN General Assembly describing it as “misleading and full of nonsense talk.”
In a press release the ministry said that Netanyahu’s address reflected malicious and latent intents towards the peace process and would not help create a positive atmosphere for launching talks between the Palestinian and Israeli sides.
Netanyahu addressed the UN General Assembly during its 72nd session that was held on Tuesday in New York City.
The peace talks between the Palestinian Authority and Israel came to a halt in 2014 after Netanyahu refused to stop settlement activities in the occupied Palestinian territories and accept the establishment of a Palestinian state along the 1967 borders.
