Gantz to meet secularist Liberman ahead of unity talks with Netanyahu

Blue and White’s Benny Gantz will be meeting with Yisrael Beytenu’s Avigdor Liberman this afternoon before heading to Jerusalem for a dramatic meeting with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu over forming a unity government.

Gantz and Liberman are slated to meet in Tel Aviv at 4 p.m., and Gantz and Netanyahu at the President’s Residence in Jerusalem at 7:30, according to spokespeople for Gantz and Rivlin.

Gantz reportedly promised Liberman last week he would not join a coalition without his secularist Russian-speaking Yisrael Beytenu party.
