Netanyahu: Out of national responsibility, I decided to suspend the legislation in order to reach a broad consensus (Leam)
President Yitzhak Herzog this evening (Monday) asked Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, opposition leader Yair Lapid and state camp leader Benny Gantz to form negotiating teams ahead of the start of talks on the legal revolution.
This, after Netanyahu's statement that he would suspend the legislation.
The President made it clear that he intends to continue to allow the representatives of the various factions in the Knesset, the civil society organizations and other parties to present their various positions and ideas as was done in the past weeks.
Afterwards, Gantz spoke with Netanyahu and welcomed the stoppage of the legislation.
During the conversation, Gantz called on Netanyahu to keep the ousted Defense Minister Yoav Galant in his position, claiming that he is "essential for national security and calming the spirits at this time."
In addition, Gantz informed that he decided to appoint Knesset members Gideon Sa'ar, Hili Trooper, Orit Parkash-HaCohen and lawyer Ronan Aviani as the negotiating team that he will send on behalf of the faction to the President's residence.

If the government comes to real and fair negotiations, we can come out of this breaking point stronger, more united, and turn this moment into a defining moment in our common life.
Modi has bitter experience from the past, we will first of all make sure that there is no exercise or eye catching."
Earlier this evening, Netanyahu announced the delay of the legislation, in order to give "a time-out for a real opportunity for negotiations". the rights of the individual." Netanyahu added: "I am aware of the enormous tension that is building up between the two camps and sections of the people.
I am attentive to the desire of many citizens to relieve this tension - "We are on the path of a dangerous collision in Israeli society.
Netanyahu did not mention the agreement with the Minister of National Security Itamar Ben Gvir or the impeachment of Galant - but he did mention Gantz's letter, which called for "a commitment to enter in good faith into negotiations on all issues."
According to Netanyahu, "I know there are other people who support this approach and I extend my hand to them."
