Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has instructed his government to prepare the nation's economy and banking sector for the possibility of severe international sanctions. In an interview with Channel 10, Netanyahu expressed significant concern over this prospect, also suggesting that U.S. military aid, amounting to tens of billions of dollars, could cease in the future. He attributed this potential shift to changes within the United States, rather than Israeli policy, and believes the halt in aid is a matter of time.
In light of these concerns, Netanyahu emphasized the need to gradually reduce reliance on American weaponry and prepare for potential restrictions on financial operations. "You must understand that there can be sanctions. And banking sanctions mean that you need to organize an alternative economy that can bypass them," he stated. The Prime Minister proposed alternative currencies and blockchain-based cryptocurrency systems as potential tools to circumvent such measures.
Netanyahu revealed that he has already tasked officials with developing an action plan to address the scenario of sanctions being imposed. He indicated that this preparation is crucial for Israel's economic resilience.
