MK Shai slams Misezhnikov as diplomatic neophyte

Yisrael Beiteinu's big mouth has caused enormous damage to the state, Knesset Member Nachman Shai (Kadima) said Saturday following the OECD's threat to cancel a conference in Jerusalem because of statements made by Tourism Minister Stas Misezhnikov.

MK Shai, chairman of the Knesset's Jerusalem lobby added, "The tourism minister, acted, as do the rest of the government ministers, as a diplomatic neophyte. It’s about time Netanyahu cleans up his government." (Attila Somfalvi)
