Netanyahu, Binyamin
Netanyahu, Binyamin (1949– ) Israeli statesman, prime minister (1996–99). He served as permanent representative (1984–88) to the United Nations
(UN) before becoming deputy minister of foreign affairs. In 1993, he became leader of the right-wing Likud Party. He defeated Shimon
Peres in the elections that followed the assassination of Yitzhak
Rabin. Netanyahu's uncompromising stance over Israeli settlement on the
West Bank and Likud's opposition to the
Israeli-Palestinian Accord stalled the peace process in the Middle East. Netanyahu and Yasir
Arafat signed the Wye Accord (1998), but the subsequent withdrawal of the religious right from the coalition prompted fresh elections (1999), in which Labour Party leader Ehud
Barak defeated Netanyahu. Ariel
Sharon succeeded Netanyahu as leader of Likud.
