Former Justice Minister Haim Ramon is convinced that if former Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu resigns from politics, the current government will be no more.
Speaking to Galei Israel Radio, Ramon said, “I understand things simply as they are. The current negotiations for a plea bargain have failed. Each one has gone back to his original position. I assume [Attorney General Avichai] Mandelblit will say that he never compromised on bribery and Case 2000, and Netanyahu will say that he never agreed to admit to moral turpitude.”
