In a firm rebuttal, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu declared the establishment of a Palestinian state west of the Jordan River 'will not happen.'
His statement followed Britain's and other Western allies' decision to unilaterally recognize a Palestinian state, a move interpreted as a mark of displeasure with Israel.
Netanyahu accused these foreign leaders of awarding a 'prize' to Hamas and plans to discuss Israel's response with President Donald Trump during his upcoming visit to the US.
