Ehud Olmert, the former Israeli Prime Minister, today, Monday, directed a series of sharp criticisms at Benjamin Netanyahu's government, considering that the current Prime Minister is significantly influenced by the positions of his political partners within the ruling coalition, which negatively affects crucial decisions.
Olmert revealed that U.S. President Donald Trump pressured Netanyahu to participate in the Sharm El Sheikh talks, noting that this step was part of an international attempt to contain the escalation in Gaza.
Regarding the ongoing war in the sector, Olmert said: "I was not against the war caused by Hamas, but after two years, it is time to end it," calling for a halt to military operations and seeking political solutions.
He also held Netanyahu's government responsible for the failure to prevent the October 7 attacks, demanding a comprehensive investigation into the circumstances of what happened, and emphasizing that Netanyahu prioritized his personal and political interests over Israeli national security during the ongoing crisis for two years.
