"We have not accepted the US offer to lease the road; we have noticed a danger of ceding sovereignty. We saw the danger not in the implementation of the function, but in the lease itself.
That option was not acceptable to us. There was an exchange of ideas with the Americans, the topic is not continuing in that direction, if we said no, then it's no".

🇮🇱❌🇫🇷🇵🇸 — Israeli Foreign Minister Gideon Sa'ar about the French unilateral recognition of Palestine:
The French President's pretension to create by mere words an illusionary arrangement in our land is ridiculous and not serious. His statement this evening shows that all the conditions that he himself set a few weeks ago - have evaporated. All that remains is the illusionary state he presumes to establish.
A Palestinian state will be a Hamas state, just as the withdrawal from the Gaza Strip twenty years ago led to Hamas taking control of it.
President Macron cannot provide security for Israel.
Let's hope he succeeds in doing so on the streets of Paris.
Israel's attempt to base its security on Palestinian promises to fight terror completely failed in the Oslo process.
Israel will no longer gamble on its security and its future.

🇮🇱🇹🇷 - An Israeli official told the Jerusalem Post:
"Turkey's agreement to purchase 40 Eurofighter Typhoon fighter jets isn't a game-changing threat to our Air Force. The Typhoon is a capable but not superior aircraft compared to our fighter jets.
But it's a clear and worrying signal that Turkey is accelerating its arms buildup in a way that could eventually challenge Israel's military edge in the region. The deal isn't an immediate threat, but still a headache for Israel".
