Israel’s Knesset passed a resolution rejecting the establishment of a Palestinian state on Thursday.

The bill, co-sponsored by Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s coalition along with right-wing parties in the opposition, was passed by an overwhelming majority of 68 votes, with only nine MKs voting against it.

Benny Gantz, seen by many leaders in the West as a more moderate figure than Netanyahu, voted in favour of the bill, along with his party.

    What I’m saying you’re making up is the intention behind the recognition, not the fact that Russia recognised the breakaway regions. We have seen Russia’s actions since the recognitions: invasion and annexation. You don’t annex places that you legitimately respect the independence of. That’s a blatant contradiction.
