(Worthy News) – The political crisis that could lead to a fourth election in 19 months being initiated Monday night appeared on its way to being resolved on Saturday night, when both Likud and Blue and White accepted a compromise.
Negotiating teams of the two parties spoke late Saturday night in an effort to reach an agreement in time for Sunday’s meeting of the Knesset Finance Committee, which is set to vote on the final readings of Derech Eretz MK Zvi Hauser’s bill to postpone the deadline for passing the state budget from Monday to December.
Hauser proposed a compromise on the issue of political appointments, which has been the toughest issue to resolve in the crisis. [ Source: Jerusalem Post (Read More…) ]
