Zionist Camp’s Herzog suspends negotiations on joining government

Yitzhak Herzog, chairman of Israel's Zionist Union party, announced Wednesday afternoon that he was suspending negotiations on the possibility of his party joining the government, in light of Prime Minister Benyamin Netanyahu's invitation of the Yisrael Beitenu party's Avigdor Lieberman for similar talks. At a press conference, he said "I'm not going to negotiate with the prime minister at the same time as Lieberman."
