Israeli Defence Minister Israel Katz on Wednesday said that French President Emmanuel Macron “should not preach morality”, after Macron criticised Israel’s blocking of aid to Gaza.
“We remember well what happened to the Jews in France when they couldn’t defend themselves. President Macron should not preach morality to us,” Katz said in a statement, the day after Macron accused Netanyahu’s government of “unacceptable” and “shameful” behaviour in a televised interview.
