The conversation was held this evening at the Foreign Ministry in Jerusalem.
The Director General said at the meeting that France chose to harm Israel at its most difficult time - and in doing so, France directly harmed the negotiations for the return of the hostages and a ceasefire, as well as any political negotiations that will take place in the future.
The CEO further said that France's announcements to determine what is right for Israel's security, instead of the elected government in Israel, is a barefaced pretension that violates Israel's sovereignty.
The Director-General added that the conditions set by the French President for recognizing a Palestinian state had lapsed within weeks and that relying on the letter of Abu Mazen He is hypocritical.
It should be noted that the deputy ambassador - the person in charge of the embassy - was summoned to the conversation because the ambassador himself is not currently in Israel.

"In keeping with its historic commitment to a just and lasting peace in the Middle East, I have decided that France will recognize a Palestinian state," he wrote.
"The urgent need today is to end the war in Gaza and save the civilian population. Peace is possible. We must immediately implement a ceasefire, release all hostages, and provide massive humanitarian assistance to the people of Gaza. We must also ensure the disarmament of Hamas, secure Gaza, and rebuild it."
He added: "We must build the State of Palestine, ensure its existence, and ensure that by fully recognizing Israel, it will contribute to security in the Middle East. There is no alternative. The French want peace. Our job, the French, together with the Israelis, the Palestinians and our European and international partners, is to prove that it is possible."
