Former Prime Minister Yair Lapid:
MK Elazar Stern informed me of his intention to resign from the Knesset after 11 years as a member of Knesset representing Yesh Atid.
Elazar was a partner in many of Yesh Atid’s achievements in Israeli politics, as well as in the establishment of the “change government,” in which he served as a minister.
Elazar was my friend even before politics, and he will remain my friend after politics as well. I thank him for many years of friendship and partnership in working for the State of Israel, and I wish him success in whatever comes next.
