Muhammad Ibrahim Al-Duwairi, Deputy Director General of the Egyptian Center for Strategic Thought and Studies, said there are no fundamental differences in the policies of the two politicians.

Lapid’s actions are compatible with those of Netanyahu, who ruled Israel for 15 years, Al-Duwairi said in statements to MENA news agency.

The expert cited, as an example, the continued colonization of the occupied territories, the arrests and assassinations of Palestinians, and the systematic attacks on the Al-Aqsa Mosque in East Jerusalem.

Lapid’s statements about the principle of the two-state solution are empty words that do not include any implementation mechanism. It is the same logic adopted by Netanyahu during his tenure, he stressed.
