Herzog says he’s ‘frustrated’ with current political discourse
President Isaac Herzog says at a journalism conference in Eilat that he is “frustrated” with the current political discourse, amid scathing attacks surrounding this week’s crucial discussions on the state budget.
“I have met all the party leaders and I am holding very frank conversations with them,” Herzog says, noting specifically that he has held such talks with opposition leader Benjamin Netanyahu, who has voiced some of the most strongly worded diatribes against the current government.
