The Likud party tells Yair Lapid to “stop whining,” after the Yesh Atid chairman criticized Netanyahu’s response to the revelation that he testified to police in the corruption cases against the prime minister.

“Stop whining and trying to divert attention away from the simple question: How did you, as finance minister, hold meetings with a close friend and former employer, Arnon Milchan, and why were you not questioned?”

Earlier, Lapid, who previously served as finance minister, blasted Netanyahu for criticizing him after it was revealed that he testified against Netanyahu in the corruption probes against him. Lapid said his criticism made him “sound like a criminal.”
