In DC, Netanyahu says investigations don’t affect his work

Addressing the Washington Economic Club, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu says the deepening investigations into his alleged corruption are not affecting his work.

“I can’t say that I like [the investigations], but I can say that it doesn’t detract, because I work my 16 hour days and I just do it,” Netanyahu says. “My hands are full. I’m very, very satisfied.”

“What I want is to be able to complete the term of this government, which is till about November 19, and if the coalition agrees, that’s what we’ll do, and if not, we’ll go to elections,” he says.
