Earlier this week, President Isaac Herzog spoke with the President of Belarus. The conversation was short and focused, and the President wished his counterpart a Happy Novy God and a Happy New Year. In their conversation, President Herzog raised the humanitarian matter of Maya Raiten.
It must be emphasized that no promise was made and there was no discussion whatsoever of anything in exchange, either directly or indirectly, and any reports to the contrary are mendacious and contemptible.
