Netanyahu demands apology from Yair Lapid over stance in Submarine affair
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has said that his testimony in the Submarine affair, also known as Case 3000, proved that his considerations throughout were entirely politically, rather than personally, motivated.
In a video he posted on Facebook, the prime minister said that he expects to hear an apology from Yesh Atid leader Yair Lapid, his former defense minister Moshe Ya’alon and from the media.
Netanyahu’s lawyer and relative David Shimron was investigated in the case, who was representing now-state’s witness Miki Ganor, the representative of German conglomerate ThyssenKrupp, in the submarine deal.
Netanyahu was never a suspect in the case.
