Former foreign minister and Yisrael Beytenu head Avigdor Liberman accused Channel 10 of pressuring decision-makers involved in the case against him, Israel Radio reported.
"A respected journalist is interviewed on [the London and Kirschenbaum program] and says 'If the only thing that's left out of the Liberman case is the Ambassador Affair I will be the first one to take back my accusations against him and say that we need to let him go free of all charges.'" he said.

Earlier this month, Attorney-General Yehuda Weinstein announced a decision to charge Liberman with fraud and breach of the public trust in the 2008 case involving obstruction of justice by former ambassador to Belarus Ze’ev Ben-Aryeh. However, Weinstein decided to close the main case against Liberman.
