France's Foreign Minister Jean-Noël Barrot:

France's Foreign Minister Jean-Noël Barrot: A reactionary international has formed, stretching from the corridors of the Kremlin to the most radical circles of the MAGA movement in the United States. It is challenging things we thought had already been secured: liberal democracy, the rule of law and multilateralism. Faced with all these upheavals, it would be easy to give in to fatalism and defeatism, to throw up our hands and surrender. I refuse to accept that. France cannot accept it.

France's Foreign Minister Jean-Noël Barrot:

France's Foreign Minister Jean-Noël Barrot: We are extremely concerned, if not appalled and outraged, by the situation in the West Bank, where there has been a surge in violence by extremist settlers against Palestinians, alongside the expansion of illegal settlements. All of this threatens the two-state solution, threatens Israel’s own security interests, and undermines a principle that we should all share: respect for human dignity.
