10 August 2024 at 20:57 Israel calls Norwegian politics extremist In a press release on X, spokesperson for the Israeli Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Oren Marmorstein, elaborates on the criticism of Norway. There he calls Norway extreme, one-sided and anti-Israel, before writing that Norway should not have a role as a peace broker. – The extremist policy of the Norwegian government prevents it from continuing to be a partner in talks with Israel on issues related to Palestine. – A unilateral policy is not the way to influence what happens in our region, and it is certainly not the way to promote the chance for real peace negotiations, he adds. On Thursday, Israel withdrew the diplomatic status of several Norwegian diplomats following accusations that Norway has a one-sided policy towards Israel. The Ministry of Foreign Affairs has not commented on Marmorstein’s statements on Saturday evening, but refers to an earlier statement that the Netanyahu government’s attempt to isolate Norway has failed. – We will continue our efforts for a two-state solution with increased force, says Eide
