With the Corona virus health crisis now a huge issue, Avigdor Liberman's now changing tactics in an attempt to avoid looking irresponsible:
But for now, it doesn't look like Benny Gantz is acting properly, seeing how he wants a minority government supported by the Joint Arab List at all costs. And that's only making him look worse, as it also does for Moshe Yaalon, who's trying to justify breaking his campaign promises with the following:
Update: while we're on the subject, a local lab in the Galilee is developing a vaccine, which'll hopefully be ready in a few weeks and fully approved in 90 days.
Yisrael Beytenu leader Avigdor Liberman has changed strategy and is now calling for a unity government in response to the coronavirus outbreak, Channel 12 News reported.Well it'll remain to be seen if Blue & White actually agrees, because so far, they're just bickering and bickering, which doesn't look good when there's such a serious topic at hand. Currently major universities and schools are being suspended due to concerns, along with airline flights being suspended for a month. I hope a vaccine will soon be perfected, but realize it's not so simple. And I hope in any event that the problem will eventually subside.
"The situation is complex, and we hope that on Sunday a new Knesset will begin to work in full," Liberman said in an interview with REKA Radio. "We believe this would be best accomplished with a national unity government. In any case, it is clear to us that we must not go for new elections."
Liberman had previously called for Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu's resignation and signaled his support for Blue and White chairman Benny Gantz.
In an interview with Channel 9 News, Liberman presented an outline for an emergency government in which Likud and Blue and White are the only parties in the coalition and other parties support the government from the outside at first. The initial government will consist of 68 Knesset seats between the two parties. Later on other parties would be permitted to join the government.
Yisrael Beytenu MK Yevgeny Suva explained to the Knesset channel: "We are heading towards a kind of recession, an economic crisis - and this crisis requires a rethinking: thinking of a unity government."
But for now, it doesn't look like Benny Gantz is acting properly, seeing how he wants a minority government supported by the Joint Arab List at all costs. And that's only making him look worse, as it also does for Moshe Yaalon, who's trying to justify breaking his campaign promises with the following:
MK Moshe Ya'alon came on Galei Tzahal (Army Radio) to explain his decision to break a campaign promise to desist from forming a government with the support of the Joint List that he, himself, has attacked in recent years.In other words, he considers Netanyahu's continued run as premier far more a problem than a terrible health crisis. That too is most offensive.
"Any government that would prevent [Prime Minister] Netanyahu from remaining in office [would be worth it]," he told [host] Ilana Dayan. "We have not given up on the attempt to form a minority government," the former Defense Minister said.
Update: while we're on the subject, a local lab in the Galilee is developing a vaccine, which'll hopefully be ready in a few weeks and fully approved in 90 days.
