Liberman: Coalition’s new proposal ‘a fraudulent trick’

At his own faction’s meeting, Yisrael Beytenu chief Avigdor Liberman says the coalition’s new proposal “is a fraudulent trick.”

He says the only basis for talks between the coalition and opposition is a halt to all current legislation and the start of negotiations based on the president’s proposal (which the government has rejected).

He says the coalition’s legislative efforts are “all steps on the way to a halachic state.”
