Deri: I’ve told Gantz, Netanyahu people won’t forgive us if we go to elections
Add ToI as a Preferred Source on GoogleInterior Minister Aryeh Deri of Shas tells Channel 12 news that he has told Benjamin Netanyahu and Benny Gantz: “The people of Israel won’t forgive us if we go to elections [again].”
He adds: “The people don’t understand [coalition infighting] and want us to work together.”
On the current budget crisis that could lead the government to dissolve by month’s end if a budget is not passed, Deri says: “I’m talking to everyone and trying to reach various compromises. We must get past this.”
He refuses to say whether his party would support Likud’s position demanding a one-year budget or Blue and White’s insisting on a two-year budget.
