While far from perfect, a far-reaching package of judicial reforms proposed by Justice Minister Yariv Levin and Foreign Minister Gideon Sa’ar today is an acceptable compromise, National Security Minister Itamar Ben Gvir declares.
“The outline is not perfect, but we can live with it. Reform with a broad consensus is the right compromise, even when it is not perfect, and therefore I support the outline and the change is welcome,” says Ben Gvir.
Congratulating Levin and Sa’ar, Ben Gvir repeats his call to fire Attorney General Gali Baharav-Miara, stating that it is “imperative to urgently resolve the issue.”
