Labor is one of the two parties that make up the Zionist Union faction, along with Tzipi Livni’s Hatnua.

“Once something substantial happens… and this unreasonable, amoral, opportunistic move to enter the right-wing government takes shape, then I will say the things I have to say,” Yachimovich tells Army Radio.
