Gantz rules out coalition with Netanyahu, says he’s committed to replacing him
(Worthy News) – Blue and White leader Benny Gantz on Sunday ruled out joining a government with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, telling lawmakers in his party that he is fully committed to the so-called “change bloc” that seeks to remove the Likud leader from power.
“My door is firmly shut to Netanyahu. Locked. I am committed exclusively to the change bloc,” Gantz said, following recent reports that he was again engaged in negotiations with Netanyahu on forming a coalition in direct violation of his campaign pledges.
Netanyahu, Israel’s longest-serving prime minister, is fighting for his political and legal survival after the March 23 elections, as he struggles to form a government and is on trial for corruption charges. His official mandate to assemble a coalition expires on Tuesday night, though he can request a 14-day extension from President Reuven Rivlin. [ Source: Times of Israel (Read More…) ]
