Foreign Minister Eli Cohen decided on Tuesday to reject the invitation of EU Foreign Minister Josep Borrell to attend a meeting of the European Union's Council of Foreign Ministers. The background to the minister's decision stems from Borrell's decision to invite a Palestinian representative to the discussion.
Yesterday, the European Union decided to freeze the transfer of funds to the Palestinian Authority. After a short time, Borrell decided to rescind the decision.

Sources close to the foreign minister said: "These days, when we bury our dead and fight criminal terrorism, when the world stands in clear support for Israel, there is no room for balances and theoretical discussions, but a decisive and uncompromising war on Palestinian terror."
