From Labor lawmaker slams ‘racist’ request by Liberman to move seats away from Arab-Israeli MK
Add ToI as a Preferred Source on GoogleLabor lawmaker Stav Shaffir appeals to Knesset Speaker Yuli Edelstein to intervene and prevent Yisrael Beytenu chairman from moving seats away from Joint (Arab) List chairman Ayman Odeh.
“I view with great severity the request of former defense minister Avigdor Liberman, chairman of the Yisrael Beytenu party, to ask to move his chair so as not to sit next to MK Ayman Odeh, chairman of the Joint List, in the Knesset plenum. This demand stems from blatant and dangerous racism,” Shaffir wrote to Edelstein.
