The leak (to the media) about the Prime Minister’s covert flight
to Saudi Arabia is irresponsible. I do not act in this manner,
and you can only imagine how many covert activities I have done
in my life, including at the behest of Premier Benjamin Netanyahu.
I have never acted in this manner and I will never act this way.
I think that in this context (the leak) the citizens of the state
of Israel need to be concerned.
Mr. Prime Minister, we heard you visited abroad, Saudi Arabia,
that's the news we've heard. Are you Serious? (“So we have
heard”) Friends, throughout my years I have never commented
on such things and I don't intend to start doing so now.
I can only tell you that really, throughout my years as
prime minister, I didn't save any effort to strengthen the state
of Israel and to expand the circle of peace and thank God we
manage to do it with our neighbors, with the Emirates, with Bahrain,
with Sudan and I hope this circle will always expand.
