Coalition Chairman Dudi Amsalem has responded to a report in Haaretz that Yair Lapid consulted with his staff with a law that would benefit Israeli-American businessman Arnon Milchan, saying, "Selective enforcement is a crime."

The Likud Party lawmaker explained, "It is inconceivable that they are reporting on Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu with a fine-tooth comb and opening an investigation into every shadow of suspicion in his environment, while serious suspicions of a conflict of interest in Yair Lapid's case do not even come up for an initial investigation. If it's not Netanyahu they don't investigate? The public's faith in the police is at stake, and therefore the attorney general must order the police to immediately summon Yair Lapid for questioning."
