Minister of Justice Rival Levin He spoke today (Monday) on the stage of the Knesset and referred to the source of the idea from which the reform of the judicial system was born, which he is interested in promoting.
The Deputy Ombudsman attacked the reform – and Minister Levin responded: “You made Minister Azitz a pot”
The former state attorney warns: “We are facing a change of regimes”
“When I spoke for the first time about reforming the judicial system, it was my first speech 14 years ago. At the end of the speech, one of the journalists approached me and said to me, ‘Get busy with something else, no one is interested.’ It took a long time to convince, and to tell the truth, three indictments led to a broad public understanding that there is a need for reform, and there is no doubt that this greatly contributed to public awareness of the matter.”
Watch Levin’s words:
