Regev on Rivlin's speech: 'Disrespectful and harms statism as never before'

Minister of Culture Miri Regev commented on President Reuven Rivlin's speech in the Knesset earlier Monday, which was critical of the government.

 

"A president who disrespects politicians disrespects the will of the people and strikes at the very heart of democracy," she attacked.

 

"President Rivlin harmed statism today as no president before him. It's the most un-statesman-like and undemocratic speech ever given by an Israeli president, and it's worth remembering this one was a politician for a long time and was voted president by other politicians. In his speech today, the president bit the hand that fed him," Regev said.
