French President Emmanuel Macron has strongly condemned remarks by Israel's Prime Minister, calling them 'abject' and 'erroneous' after being accused of fueling antisemitism by supporting the recognition of a Palestinian state. Tensions have risen between Israel and its traditional allies, including France, Britain, Canada, and Australia, following recent pledges to recognize Palestinian statehood, a move opposed by Israel. Macron's office rejected the claim that France's stance is responsible for increasing antisemitic violence, emphasizing the need for seriousness and responsibility in addressing the issue. France, home to Western Europe's largest Jewish community, has seen a surge in antisemitic incidents, especially after the October attacks in Israel, prompting the government to take strong action against such acts.
