PM to Knesset: I hope Obama doesn’t abandon Israel
Netanyahu tells the Knesset winter session that he hopes President Obama will not abandon Israel.
“I would like to express our appreciation for the [US] aid package we received,” he says. “It does not mean that occasional disagreements will not arise between us, but I hope they will be rare. Obama declared in 2011 that peace will not be achieved by the UN resolutions, but through direct negotiations. I believe he will stay true to this, and not abandon Israel.”
