In the background of the hearing in Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s trial in the Jerusalem District Court, “New Hope” chairman Gideon Saar referred to the legal process and said that “this is a difficult day for everyone and it is a difficult day for the State of Israel.”
Saar added that “this is an issue that politicians from all sides should not interfere in. It should be possible to conduct the judicial process without political intervention from any party and without any kind of political pressure.”
Saar also expressed his opinion on the government’s response to the corona crisis and the exit process from the third closure, arguing that “the government has failed in education just as it has failed at Ben Gurion Airport, just as it has failed in enforcement and business protection.”
He said, “It does not make sense for this to be done as a gig and not as it should be. It is possible to return gradually to studies, responsibly and differentially. That is, taking into account the morbidity data in different authorities and different regions. We also have the tools. For testing. ”

On the issue of trade, the chairman of “New Hope” said that “the issue of trade can also be differentiated. There are things the government has set in the past, like purple character rules. It has established a way to reduce risks and allow people to make a living and survive. The government also has powers on how to encourage small businesses. That fact must be taken into account. “
