Speaking in the Knesset, National Security Minister Itamar Ben Gvir again welcomes Donald Trump’s presumptive US election victory, stating that now “this is the time for sovereignty, this is the time for complete victory.”
It is also the time to pass a death penalty for terrorists and “all kinds of laws [on which] I have no doubt that the president of the United States will see eye to eye” with us, he adds.
