Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said in a released video that the next Knesset elections will be held on schedule, after he did not respond to a question on the matter during yesterday's press conference. In the video, Netanyahu said the elections will be held 'because we are democrats, we believe the public has the right to choose, unlike our opponents and others who say: What does it matter if you were elected? We will decide who heads the Shin Bet and who is the Civil Service Commissioner.' He added: 'That's not us, the elections will not be held after their scheduled date, that's nonsense.'
