Lapid says Netanyahu only held ‘press conferences’ against Iran deal, caused damage
In response to Opposition Leader Benjamin Netanyahu’s criticism of the Iran deal, Prime Minister Yair Lapid argues that all Netanyahu did as premier was “press conferences and presentations.”
“The damage he caused during his tenure to the two issues most important to Israel — the struggle against Iran’s nuclear program and the relations with the United States — is severe and deep and we are still fixing it,” Lapid says in a statement.
Lapid says he has summoned Netanyahu for a security briefing tomorrow, “so that he will at least have some idea what he’s talking about.”
