US Republican Senator Bob Corker, chairman of the influential Senate Foreign Relations Committee, congratulates Netanyahu and Herzog on their election campaigns.

“The oldest and most stable democracy in the Middle East has once again gone through a hotly contested election and will peacefully form a new government. We congratulate Mr. Netanyahu on his victory and Mr. Herzog on his competitive run, and we look forward to continuing to build on our mutual interests,” says Corker.
