Lapid in farewell post: ‘This isn’t the end, we’ll be back’
Set to be replaced later today by Benjamin Netanyahu, outgoing Prime Minister Yair Lapid pens a farewell post on Facebook, promising to return to the role.
“Citizens of Israel, thanks for the last year and a half,” he writes, referring to his year as alternate prime minister under Naftali Bennett and his six months as premier.
“This isn’t the end, this is the beginning of the struggle for our beloved country. We are fighting for the future of our kids and we won’t stop until we topple the government of destruction, and return.”
אזרחי ישראל, תודה על השנה וחצי האחרונות. זה לא סיום, זה תחילת המאבק על המדינה האהובה שלנו. אנחנו נלחמים על עתיד הילדים שלנו ולא נעצור עד שנפיל את ממשלת ההרס, ונחזור.
