French Foreign Minister Stephane Sejourne has said that “settler violence must stop” against Palestinians in the occupied West Bank, after meeting Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. “Under no circumstances can there be forced displacement of Palestinians, neither out of Gaza nor out of the West Bank,” Mr. Sejourne said during a Middle East tour aimed at securing a truce between Israel and militant group Hamas in Gaza. The French minister denounced anti-Palestinian speech and “even calls to commit war crimes”.
