France condemns Israel’s ban on French leftist politician Mélenchon

France’s Foreign Minister criticised Israel’s decision to bar Jean-Luc Mélenchon from entering the country, calling it a “demagogic” move. Israel’s Interior and Foreign Affairs Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir had blocked Mélenchon’s entry citing his anti-Israel policies. France argued the decision plays into the hands of those exploiting the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.
