Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu denies providing benefits to Bezeq and claims he supported breaking its monopoly in the internet market. He insists that he backed reforms against Bezeq and gave full backing to then-communications minister Gilad Erdan to break up the monopoly. Netanyahu refutes allegations of a 'give and take' relationship with media mogul Shaul Elovitch, stating that his support for reforms contradicts the theory. He denies pressuring Erdan to delay the reforms and says he actually advanced them.
