Lapid: US criticism of Netanyahu is also heard in Riyadh, Moscow and Beijing
Opposition Leader Yair Lapid tears into Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu after the White House upbraided up for a video statement the premier released earlier this week, saying the US criticism is also heard in the capitals of Saudi Arabia, Russia, China and elsewhere.
“In these places, everyone is reaching the same conclusion: Israel is no longer the closest ally of the US. This is the damage Netanyahu is causing us. This is his terrible irresponsibility and these are consequences,” Lapid says in a statement.
