Netanyahu Has Not Briefed Lapid on Security Since April, Despite Legal Requirement
Against the backdrop of an emerging U.S.-Iran agreement and Israeli claims that it could cause major damage, opposition leader Yair Lapid asked Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to hold a security briefing with him as required by law. Lapid made the request for an update on security matters, but Netanyahu’s office has not yet set a date for the meeting.
Under a 2000 law, the prime minister must brief the opposition leader at least once a month. Netanyahu’s last update to Lapid was delivered on April 15, which means two months have already passed since they last met for a security-related briefing.
The article says the delay comes while Israeli officials are warning about the consequences of the deal taking shape between the United States and Iran. No new briefing date has been announced.
