Prime Minister Benyamin Netanyahu praised President Donald Trumps decision to close the PLO delegation office in Washington DC, saying:
"the United States has made the right decision.The Palestinians refuse to enter negotiations with us and at the same time, they are attacking Israel with lies in international forums. Israel highly appreciates the Trump administration's decision and supports American actions aimed at making it clear to the Palestinians that refusing to enter negotiations and unbridled attacks not only will not advance peace - they will not benefit the Palestinians."
