Yair Lapid: "I have no political experience and no news in negotiations"

The meeting of the Yesh Atid faction was held today (Monday) with the participation of its members and faction chairman, MK Yair Lapid.

Lapid said in his introduction that he had just arrived from his office, where he spoke with Esther Pollard, wife of the spy Jonathan Pollard, who has been languishing in an American prison. Lapid told his party members that the meeting received a phone call from her husband of Esther. She handed him the cell phone and "the conversation with him brought tears to my eyes. "

"He was broken and desperate," Lapid said. "He feels that no one is willing to take up the challenge in his subject, but we will do to the best of our ability," he promised.

According to Lapid, the conversation did not last long because Pollard's phone time is limited to a few minutes a day.

Lapid said later: "They say we have no political experience - and it's true. We do not understand, so we deal with values only - which we do understand. The question faced by Netanyahu is not which portfolios to hand out, but according to what values he wants to lead the State of Israel ".

With respect to the coalition negotiations he said: "This is the weekly meeting where I tell you that I have nothing to tell."
