Minister of National Security Itamar Ben Gabir commented this morning (Wednesday) on the words of US President Joe Biden, who clarified that due to the issue of legal reform, he will not invite Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to the White House in the near future.
In an interview with IDF Radio, Ben Gabir said: “We appreciate the democratic regime there, but precisely for this reason – they need to understand that Israel is an independent country and no longer a star on the US flag. It should be clear all over the world – the people here went to the elections And he has his desires.”
In addition, Ben Gabir harshly attacked Defense Minister Galant and said: “Galant gave his back to the recalcitrants. At every intersection we reached – he did not implement the ideology of the right, and after putting sticks in the legal reform, the Prime Minister did well.”
