Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu told CNN Sunday his country would remain a “robust democracy” despite controversial plans to overhaul the country’s judicial system. Amid widespread protests, a historic nationwide strike and mounting international pressure last month Netayahu delayed votes on the changes, which would have amounted to the most sweeping overhaul of the Israeli legal system since the country’s founding.
“The big challenge is to bring it back to a balance that is accepted in most democracies… without going to the side that would indeed remove checks and balances on the power of the majority.” Netanyahu dismissed the idea that the controversy around the judicial overhaul plan would drive high-tech businesses out of the country, though some leaders of the normally apolitical tech sector have warned loudly against weakening the independence of Israel’s courts.
