Smotrich urges Netanyahu to restrict Abbas after Turkey visit
Israeli Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich called on Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to prevent Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas from returning to the West Bank after his current visit to Turkey to meet with Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan. Smotrich stated that Abbas's stance towards Erdoğan reveals his hostile ambitions against Israel, describing him as an enemy leading a terrorist authority that encourages terrorism against Israel, considering this to reflect the true face of the Palestinian president. The call comes amid escalating tensions between Israel and the Palestinians following Abbas's visit to Turkey, Israel's reaffirmation of its security positions and settlement policies, and ongoing Israeli efforts to enhance security in the southern regions, along with a rejection of any normalization with Iran or the abolition of Smotrich's measures.
