Ynet – Outgoing National Security Advisor Yaakov Amidror said Sunday that if Israel’s peace talks with the Palestinians collapse, international pressure on Israel may worsen, which may lead to harsher boycotts.

“It is clear to everyone that handling international pressure depends on the progress of the negotiations, and if the talks fail, it will give everyone interested in boycotting us every reason to do so,” Amidror said, noting specifically European bans which he believe may be exacerbated.
