(Ynet).France accused Prime Minister Benjamin Neyanyahu on Friday of prejudicing the outcome of the Middle East peace process by declaring that Jerusalem would forever be Israel's undivided capital.
"The declaration made by the Israeli prime minister yesterday in Jerusalem prejudices the final status agreement," Foreign Ministry spokesman Frederic Desagneaux told reporters in Paris.
Knesset Member Ofir Akunis (Likud) said in response to the French criticism over Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's vow that Jerusalem will forever remain Israel's capital that "the Israelis don't agree to divide Jerusalem, just like the French won't agree to divide Paris."
According to MK Akunis, "Our policy in every agreement is that Jerusalem will remain under Israel's sovereignty."
