REUTERS - Prime Minister
Benjamin Netanyahu said U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry's Middle East speech
on Wednesday was biased against Israel.
In a statement in
English issued by the Prime Minister's Office, Netanyahu said: "Like the
Security Council resolution that Secretary Kerry advanced in the U.N., his
speech tonight was skewed against Israel."
The Israeli leader
said Kerry "obsessively dealt with settlements", which the United
States strongly opposes, in the speech. Netanyahu accused Kerry of barely
touching upon "the root of the conflict - Palestinian opposition to a
Jewish state in any boundaries".
