MK Nivin Abu Rahmon (Joint List) responded to Knesset Speaker Yuli Edelstein, who said he would prefer the Balad party not to be in the next Knesset.
"Only today I stood and spoke about how difficult it is to be an Arab MK and to deal with all the incitement and delegitimization of other MKs and here is the Speaker of the Knesset, a moment after the vote who repeats the same pattern of action."
