France: Israeli Knesset decision on Golan and Jerusalem is against peace

France on Tuesday deplored the Israeli Knesset proposal to approve a law rejecting any withdrawal from the occupied Syrian Golan Heights and from Jerusalem without Knesset and popular votes.

The spokeswoman for the French Foreign Ministry said that the proposal puts a new big obstacle in the way of the Middle East peace process, at the expense of all the people in the region. She called for sparing no efforts to revive the Middle East peace on all tracks, including the Syrian and Lebanese ones.

The spokeswoman also asserted France's firm position on maintaining an Israeli withdrawal from all occupied Arab territories including the Golan Heights and Jerusalem.
