Lapid: Israel faces greater global isolation under Netanyahu
Israeli opposition leader Yair Lapid has stated that Israel has become more isolated internationally due to the actions of the Benjamin Netanyahu government. He explained that several incidents—such as arrest warrants from The Hague court, searches of Israeli passengers’ bags at Dutch airports, the boycott of the Eurovision Song Contest, and the withdrawal of performers during Netanyahu’s speech at the United Nations—reflect a decline in Israel’s global standing. Amid the escalation of the war on Gaza since October 2023, which has resulted in over 74,000 deaths, 175,000 injuries, and the destruction of 90% of the infrastructure, Lapid criticized some Israeli ministers’ statements proposing more extreme options. He described the current government as the most right-wing in Israel’s history and warned that the country’s international image is deteriorating due to its current policies.
