Benjamin Netanyahu turned to Foreign Ministry in concern over settlement law
Foreign Ministry document approved by Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and obtained by The Jerusalem Post tells foreign capitals: “The [settlement regulation] law will be reviewed by the Supreme Court.”
This finding reaffirms the widespread assumption that the premier was against the legislation that the Knesset passed on Monday, but acted to promote it out of fear of backlash from the political Right.
The official document that was approved by the prime minister seeks to appease the international community that was adamant in its critique of the settlement regulation law, in what can be perceived as a diplomatic attempt at damage control.
