Lapid says US withdrawal from Syria a Netanyahu policy failure
Opposition party leader Yair Lapid slams Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu after the US signals it will fully withdraw its troops from Syria, despite Israeli fears of Iranian military entrenchment in the neighboring country.
“The American withdrawal from Syria is a failure of Netanyahu’s foreign policy,” writes Lapid on Twitter. “This paves the way for Iranian entrenchment and reduces Israel’s bargaining power vis-a-vis the Russians.”
Netanyahu is also Israel’s foreign minister and defense minister.
