Gantz says he will call for unity government with Likud after elections

Blue and White party leader Benny Gantz says he will aim to form a unity government with the ruling Likud following the September 17 elections, a scenario dismissed so far by Likud but pushed by Yisrael Beytenu chief Avigdor Liberman.

“We will call for a unity government and an agreement immediately after the elections,” Gantz tells reporters in the Knesset, as party officials register its slate with the Central Elections Committee.
