Chairman Avigdor Liberman of the Yisrael Beytenu Party has expressed satisfaction at the cancellation of a meeting between haredi-religious Knesset membrs and the Finance Ministry regarding the budget for yeshivas, which he had complained about earlier on Sunday.
Writing on Twitter, Liberman said, "Let's hope this is not an exercise in order to pull of a political hijacking. Canceling the meeting just illustrates how important it is for Yisrael Beytenu to be strong."
