Blue and White hits back, blames Netanyahu for coalition crisis

In response to Netanyahu, the Blue and White party says the prime minister is to blame for the looming collapse of the government, which would trigger the fourth round of elections in two years.

“If there was no trial, there would be a budget,” says the party, referring to Netanyahu’s trial on corruption charges, and the budget crisis, which is widely seen as a bid by the prime minister to avoid a handover of power to Blue and White’s Benny Gantz next year.
