Anwar's remarks on Israel to be raised in Parliament

2015-08-20 4

Claims by opposition leader Anwar Ibrahim that Foreign Minister Anifah Aman, like himself, had made statements supporting the security of Israel, will be questioned by Perkasa chief Ibrahim Ali in Parliament.

"We'll clarify that in the coming Parliament sitting in March, I will raise the matter, if this is what he (Anwar) claims," he said today.

Ibrahim was responding to Anwar's defence that his statement supporting Israel's security on condition that it respects Palestine's rights to statehood in a Wall Street Journal interview on Thursday was similar to Malaysia's foreign policy.
