(MENAFN) Israeli citizens were prevented from entering Malaysia after the country cut its diplomatic ties with Israel.
Malaysia is authorized to shut its borders in the face of whatever country it wishes, specifically countries with increasing wrongdoings, stressed Prime Minister Dr Mahathir Mohamad.
The prime minister affirmed that "many nations today are seeing outsiders coming to their countries and are not very happy about it. They overthrow their governments because they allow immigrants to come in."
Mohamad added: "so, a country has the right to keep its border closed to certain people, that is why the border is there, but in Malaysia, we have no diplomatic relations with Israel at all and we feel that they are doing a lot of wrong things but getting away with them because nobody dares to say anything against them."
