Sharren Haskel on how Canada recognizing Palestine only emboldens Hamas
Description
Sharren Haskel, Deputy Minister of Foreign Affairs for Israel, discusses her unique political journey from Toronto-born veterinarian to Israeli politician and her role in Israel's wartime diplomacy. She also discusses the current state of the Israel-Hamas war, where she argued that international pressure on Israel—including Canada's recognition of Palestinian statehood—has undermined ceasefire negotiations and emboldened Hamas to reject peace deals. She ends the conversation discussing her efforts to build coalitions worldwide and her vision for defeating radical jihadist forces across the Middle East.
