Zionist Union MK: Netanyahu 'went too far' in Turkey agreement

MK Itzik Shmuli (Zionist Union) on Sunday evening criticized the reconciliation agreement between Israel and Turkey, and attacked Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu for caving in to Turkey’s demands.

“The relations with Turkey are important to Israel but Netanyahu went too far when he agreed to an all-inclusive package for families of terrorists who attacked Israeli soldiers,” Shmuli said, in reference to a reported clause in the agreement stipulating that Israel will transfer $21 million to the families of the nine IHH Islamists who were on the Mavi Marmara in 2010.
