Israeli Foreign Minister Gideon Sa'ar strongly condemned international pressure on Israel on Tuesday, asserting that these efforts aim to force the country into accepting the creation of a Palestinian state. Speaking at a ceremony honoring victims of the October 7th attacks and fallen soldiers, Sa'ar stated, "We do not have the privilege of capitulating." He argued that the international community is attempting to push Israel back to "indefensible borders," especially after recent events demonstrated the necessity of "minimal geographic depth." Sa'ar believes these political, legal, and economic pressures are designed to establish a "terrorist Palestinian state in the heart of our country," which would then serve as a launchpad for further attempts to destroy Israel. The Foreign Minister also defended his government's international diplomatic efforts, stating that Israel is engaged in "defensive battles every day" while simultaneously forging "new paths" and renewing diplomatic ties. With elections approaching, Sa'ar urged Israelis to manage their political differences without hostility, emphasizing, "We are brothers, surrounded by enemies. He who thinks differently from us is not an enemy."
