Member of Knesset Tali Gottlieb said this morning that she “expects a show of hands from Netanyahu’s entourage, history will tell if in a few months Braverman will remain in his position” • “Braverman is not a person standing in front of me, he is an official of one kind or another,” she added
Although Prime Minister-designate Binyamin Netanyahu announced to President Yitzhak Herzog last night (Wednesday) that he was able to form the next government, tensions within the Likud still exist and are even increasing. Knesset member Tali Gottlieb said this morning on 104.5FM that “I expect Netanyahu’s entourage to applaud, history will tell if in a few months Braverman will remain in his position.”
At the beginning of her remarks, Gottlieb referred to the fact that the chairman of Otzma Yehudit Itamar Ben Gvir received many powers in the context of internal security in Israel, and emphasized that he is part of the government “his success – our success”. The best for the benefit of the citizens.”
She also stated that in her opinion the discussion about the roles is embarrassing: “Every member of the Knesset should remember his duty to the citizens whether it is a more or less important office, in the end we are public servants and public messengers who have to do their jobs faithfully. I don’t see it as a disappointment, there should be Maturity and understanding that in this government, in the complexity of its establishment and the importance of its establishment, there will always be concessions because we depend on side parties.”
“This is the democratic system, there is no choice but to give up, because we want governance, we want a stable government for years, but what we need to do is please the public and do for the public,” she added. Gottlieb shared about the situation in Bnei Brak as a former resident of the city: “Poverty is very great, the ultra-Orthodox women work and raise families blessed with children. The contribution of the ultra-Orthodox public in the charitable giving they do is a glory in itself – if I have to think about ultra-Orthodox allowances, which anyway receive allowances, I prefer that he doesn’t come to the meetings themselves, but to people whose teachings are his faith.”
Later, the Knesset member referred to tensions between her and Netanyahu’s advisors, after despite the attack against her by Tzachi Braverman, he received an appointment in the office of the Prime Minister-designate. “Breverman is not a person standing in front of me, he is an official of one kind or another. I expect Netanyahu’s entourage to applaud, history will tell if in a few months Braverman remains in his position. Netanyahu is an excellent statesman, he needs people to strengthen him. Good advisers do not put themselves first The stage, they are strengthening the leader, a man who puts himself at the center of the discourse is weakening Netanyahu and I will not allow that.”
