Naides advised the Prime Minister to act carefully in promoting his legal plan in an interview with the podcast of the former adviser to the President of the United States David Axelrod.
He added, "We are telling the prime minister, as I tell my children - put on the brakes. Slow down. Try to reach a consensus. This is a very complex issue and they are trying to advance it too quickly."
The ambassador said that the United States will not dictate to Israel how to choose judges for the Supreme Court, but emphasized that the democratic institutions are what connects the two countries.
