Israel will not allow the creation of a Palestinian state in the territory of the Gaza Strip. This statement was made by the Prime Minister of the Jewish State, Benjamin Netanyahu, during a press conference, which was broadcast on local TV channels.
"I have heard statements that we will allow the creation of a Palestinian state in Gaza. This has not happened and will not happen," Netanyahu said. He added that Israel will not allow the restoration of Gaza until the complete demilitarization of the sector and the disarmament of the radical Hamas movement, and will not tolerate the presence of Turkish and Qatari soldiers in the enclave.
"Israel will maintain security control over the entire territory, from the Jordan River to the Mediterranean Sea, and this also applies to the Gaza Strip," concluded the head of the government of the Jewish state.
