Deputy Foreign Minister Tzipi Hotovely has welcomed Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu's decision to cancel his agreement with the United Nations, which would leave tens of thousands of infiltrators in Israel. She said, "The cancellation of the agreement with the UN regarding the infiltrators is the right decision, and the Israeli government will find the way to reach the result of removing the infiltrators from Israel."
Hotovely concluded, "We will not reward employment migrants with the title of refugee. They were and remain employment migrants who broke the law by illegally entering Israel."
