In his speech at the opening of the government session, Netanyahu shared that he came to this meeting without meeting with German Foreign Minister Annalena Baerbock and British Foreign Minister David Cameron, who are visiting his country.
Expressing his gratitude to “friendly countries that contribute to Israel’s defense with their statements and actions”, Netanyahu said, “(Friendly countries) give us many suggestions and recommendations. I appreciate them, but I must make this clear. We will take our own decisions and the State of Israel will do everything to protect itself.”
