Gov’t with Liberman will still back two-state solution — Israeli official
An Israeli official tells The Times of Israel that with Liberman poised to join the coalition, the government will continue to support the two-state solution.
“If a coalition is formed, it’s important to note that both PM Netanyahu and Liberman support a solution based on two states for two peoples. In fact, it has historically been right-wing governments, like that of Menachem Begin, which achieved peace with our Arab neighbors like Egypt,” the official says.
