Former prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu calls on the government to take a more guarded approach to the ongoing war in Ukraine and instead focus its attention on the Iran nuclear deal, in his first public statement on the European conflict since Russia invaded its neighbor.
“In days like these, it’s advisable to take positions with the utmost caution,” Netanyahu says at the opening of Monday’s Likud faction meeting. “Unfortunately, in the last few days we’ve heard too many unnecessary expressions and too many false predictions.”
