Lieberman attacks Netanyahu: Trump runs Israel through a 'Bibi puppet'

Yisrael Beiteinu party leader Avigdor Lieberman attacked Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu over US President Donald Trump's public support for him, saying in an interview with Radio 103FM that it is "comfortable" for Trump to run Israel through a "Bibi puppet," and stressing that the decision on Israel's leadership must remain in the hands of Israelis. Lieberman also addressed the possibility of forming a minority government, warning against it, and the controversy sparked by media figure Yinon Magal's remarks about Gadi Eisenkot, describing the governing coalition as "racist."
