After insisting on his commitment to reaching broad agreement on judicial reform, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu accuses the opposition of thwarting ongoing negotiations being brokered by President Isaac Herzog.

“You only talk about dialogue but in talks say, ‘No, no, no, no.’ I would be happy to hear what you do agree to,” he claims during a so-called “40-signatures” Knesset session requiring his attendance. “I call on you to listen, come to your senses, chart a new course, and enter into real talks with us to try to reach agreements.”
