Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu called this weekend’s Middle East ‘peace’ conference in Paris a fraud on Thursday, with his government refusing to play any role in the meeting.

“This conference is a fraud, a Palestinian fraud supported by France, the aim of which is to adopt additional anti-Israeli positions,” Netanyahu said during a meeting with the Norwegian foreign minister, according to his office.

Sunday’s conference to be attended by some 70 nations is aimed at exploring ways to restart long-stalled Israeli-Palestinian ‘peace’ efforts.
