The PMO announced Wednesday PM Netanyahu would not agree to make a joint declaration with Polish PM Donald Tusk endorsing the PA statehood wish or a possible construction freeze.
The National Security Council originally drafted the declaration, but the PM refused to approve it.
Labor Chairwoman Shelly Yachimovich argued, "In a time when Secretary John Kerry is making such a significant effort to jump-start negotiations with the PA, PM Netanyahu should not be giving in to pressure from within the coalition, and instead attempt to ease the international pressure and isolation of Israel.
