Israeli diplomatic circles here have reacted bitterly to a statement by Foreign Minister Maurice Schumann on a recent radio interview that Israel seemed to be “possessed with a genuine passion for annexation” of neighboring Arab territory. There was no official comment from Jerusalem on Schumann’s interview but circles said his statement showed that France has not altered its pro-Arab policy.
