Member of Knesset Ksenia Svetlova (Zionist Union) has responded to Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu's news conference in Paris, where he said there is no diplomatic solution with Hamas, just as there is not diplomatic solution with Islamic State terrorists and others who want the destruction of Israel.

Svetlova said, "Netanyahu has been in power for 10 years and the words 'political solution' have never been a part of his lexicon. The problem is that in his destructive policy he encourages the extremists and harms the moderates and thus brings the end of a Jewish and democratic Israel closer."
