Gantz phones Joint List’s Odeh, vows to form coalition ‘that will serve all citzens’
Blue and White party leader Benny Gantz phones Ayman Odeh, leader of the majority-Arab Joint List, after he was tasked earlier today by President Rivlin with forming the next government.
“Gantz told him that Blue and White under his leadership is committed to forming a government that will serve all citizens of the State of Israel,” a statement from Blue and White says.
Unlike after Gantz’s other phone calls with party chiefs, the statement doesn’t say if the Blue and White chief invited Odeh to meet.
