On Monday, former Israeli Prime Minister “Benjamin Netanyahu” declined on the statement that he had reached a deal with the public prosecutors that would force him to quit politics and promised to be the leader of his Likud party.
Netanyahu, who served the country as a Prime Minister for the past 12 years, since 2009, was on trial for bribery, fraud and breach of trust; however, he denied all allegations against him.
His legal team was negotiating a deal with Israel’s solicitor general that, according to the sources, contained admission to the offence of “moral turpitude”, which would have carried a seven-year political ban.
According to Netanyahu, in recent days, I heard many claims on me from which I agree on which I attempted, such as the claim I agreed to “Ethical Depravity.”
Moreover, I will continue to lead Likud,” he added in comments that may soak assumption about his potential looming exit from the stage of politics.”
Netanyahu, currently the opposition leader of the parliament, is charged with accepting improper gifts as a bribe and seeking to trade for regulatory favours from media tycoons in exchange for favourable coverage.
However, his trial was expected to go for several more months. An appeal process may get delayed if necessary could take years.
In June, the union government that dismissed him led by Prime Minister Naftali Bennett was primarily developed through shared antipathy towards Netanyahu among a group of ideologically disparate parties.
According to the Political experts, Netanyahu’s leave from politics, and right-wing Likud’s elections of a less contentious leader, could spell trouble for his team, as it would struggle for a team to hold together in the absence of the main unifying force.
