Chairman Yair Lapid of the Yesh Atid Party has responded to the police's recommendation to indict Interior Minister Aryeh Deri by saying, "Another minister is joining elected officials suspected of corruption."
Lapid continued. "In a civilized country, [Prime Minister Binyamin] Netanyahu would have demanded Deri's resignation today. But a prime minister with a recommendation for an indictment cannot exactly say something to an interior minister with a recommendation for an indictment."
