Welcome to The Times of Israel’s Daily Briefing, your 15-minute audio update on what’s happening in Israel, the Middle East, and the Jewish world, from Sunday through Thursday.
Today’s panel comprises US correspondent Jacob Magid and environment correspondent Sue Surkes, along with host Raoul Wootliff.
On today’s show, we look at the Biden administration’s embrace of the new Israeli government and Prime Minister Naftali Bennett and how politicians across the Atlantic have responded to Netanyahu’s ouster.
With a possible restart in relations, what is the future of Israel-US ties and how can the new Israeli administration work toward building a better relationship with the Democratic Party?
We take a specific look at what the new government means for environmental issues – what does it need to do to build on previous work and how can it improve?
And, even as the new ministers take up their posts, Netanyahu appears to be hunkering down in the official Prime Minister’s Residence. When will he leave?
