Labor chairman MK Avi Gabbay responded to MK Tal Russo's intention to resign from political life.

"I had the privilege to meet and be with Tal in the period before and after the elections.

"From the moment he joined, Tal worked and worked nonstop, reaching every place where he could influence and speak to the public. He was not at all about honor and status, all about work and values. It's sad that a wonderful person like Tal is leaving politics. I hope he will return to work in the public sphere."
