Zionist Union party leader Isaac Herzog blasts Netanyahu for his upcoming speech to Congress, saying it is “solely for the sake of elections.

“Preaching to the choir in Congress won’t change a thing. And at the end of the day, it will sour the atmosphere, the relationship with the administration,” he says.

“I can already tell you,” he said, “the way to change what is happening in the negotiations between the coalition and Iran is through dialogue that is intensive, straightforward and intimate. Not through speeches.”
