France is co-chairing with Saudi Arabia this month an international conference at the United Nations aimed at resurrecting the idea of a two-state solution, which the government of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu opposes.
In an interview with Fox News published on Saturday, Huckabee called the initiative at the UN “incredibly inappropriate when Israel is in the midst of a war”.
“If France is really so determined to see a Palestinian state, I’ve got a suggestion for them -- carve out a piece of the French Riviera and create a Palestinian state. They are welcome to do that, but they are not welcome to impose that kind of pressure on a sovereign nation.”
The day before, Israel announced the creation of 22 new settlements in the West Bank, with Defence Minister Israel Katz later vowing to build a “Jewish Israeli state” in the occupied territory.
But Huckabee, a staunch advocate for Israel, has said there is “no such thing as an occupation” when it comes to the Palestinian territories.
