Gantz: We still back unity gov’t, but Likud can’t hinge it on right-wing bloc

Gantz also says Netanyahu’s insistence on negotiating on behalf of the 55-seat bloc of right-wing and religious parties, rather than just Likud, doomed the unity talks.

“Blue and White is committed to the idea of unity, but from our perspective, the appropriate order would see negotiations between the two largest parties — and them alone — in order to reach agreements on the substantive issues and the character of the next government.”
