French Presidential Candidate Macron Says Recognizing Palestinian State Would "Create Instability"

(Ha'aretz) Roni Bar - A leading French presidential candidate, Emmanuel Macron, broke with government policy and told France's Radio J that unilaterally recognizing a Palestinian state "would not serve anyone" and would "create instability." Asked about the campaign to boycott Israel, Macron said, "There are several laws against boycotting. There is no question of changing that law and no question of acting indulgently on this. For me, these are anti-Zionist moves, thus profoundly anti-Semitic." (Jerusalem Post)
