Israel PM Netanyahu expected to freeze judicial reform legislation
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is expected to announce he is holding off on judicial reform in a statement on Monday after President Isaac Herzog called on a coalition to block judicial reform legislation on Monday morning. Major protests, The Jerusalem Post reported.
“Tonight we saw some very difficult scenes. I turn to the prime minister, the government and the members of the coalition. Feelings are difficult and painful. Deep anxiety engulfs people. Security, economy, society – everything at risk The eyes of all the people of Israel are on you,” said President Isaac Herzog.
“For the sake of responsibility, for the unity of the people of Israel, I am calling on you (Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu) to stop the law immediately. I count all party leaders of the Knesset, the coalition and the opposition as one.” Keep the citizens of the nation above all and behave responsibly and bravely without delay.”
The Religious Zionist party said in a statement, “After much debate, our position is that we should not block the law in any way. Blocking the law amounts to violence, anarchy, denial of minority orders and tyranny. We Were willing to talk, compromise and agree the whole time but not under the threat of a revolution on Israeli democracy.”
National Security Minister and Otma Yehudit leader MK Itamar Ben-Gvir threatened to quit the government on Monday in the event of a freeze on the judicial reform law, reports the Jerusalem Post, reports Kan and Channel 12 News.
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu met with coalition party leaders on Monday morning to decide whether to push forward a controversial bill to remake the judicial appointments committee, which passed the Knesset constitution committee on Monday morning and is now ready to bring. The Jerusalem Post reported that it was sent to the Knesset plenum for its second and third readings.
Within the meeting, Ben-Gvir was heard shouting that the government should not back down.
If Ben-Gvir quits the government and the coalition leaves, the coalition will no longer have a majority and the government is likely to collapse, The Jerusalem Post reported.
On the other hand, thousands of people protested throughout the night. Large protests continued in Tel Aviv on Sunday night after Netanyahu berated Defense Minister Yoav Galant for calling on the coalition to freeze the law.
