Netanyahu denies accusations he delayed departure of Qatar negotiating team

Lazar Berman is The Times of Israel's diplomatic reporter

Amid accusations that Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is trying to delay the departure of the negotiating team to Qatar by not holding a cabinet meeting tonight, his office puts out a statement that the prime minister had already announced on Friday that the War Cabinet and Security Cabinet would meet tomorrow evening to discuss the team’s mandate.

“The demand to convene the cabinet tonight is nothing more than artificial attempts to create headlines,” says the PMO.
