Israeli Foreign Minister Israel Katz met with his Slovenian counterpart Tanja Fajon and sharply criticized him for the possible unilateral recognition of the Palestinian state by his country. “Now you want to recognize a Palestinian state? After the massacre on October 7? Unilateral recognition of a Palestinian state would be a reward for Hamas and Iran. Such a state, if established, will be controlled by Hamas and Iran. We expect friendly countries like Slovenia to support Israel in these difficult times. times and does not act against it, Israel will not jeopardize its security,” Katz said.

“We are not against Israel, but our position is clear. We are for peace. We want to prevent harm to civilians, we must stop it. We need to introduce increased humanitarian aid. It is an opportunity for a ceasefire, even a temporary one,” Fayon replied. “Every the ceasefire must be linked to the release of the hostages. If you want to prevent civilians from being harmed, you must pressure Hamas to use civilians as human shields. Your pressure should now be on Hamas and the countries that influence it to release the kidnapped people and lay down their arms,” the Israeli diplomat continued.
