Joint List head to Rivlin: Our priority is ‘removing Benjamin Netanyahu from power’
Leaders of the Joint List of four predominantly Arab parties meet with President Rivlin for consultations who should form the next government after last week’s elections.
“For us, the most important thing is removing Benjamin Netanyahu from power… so we will recommend Benny Gantz to form the next government,” Joint List leader Ayman Odeh tells Rivlin.
“We have been turned into a group that is not legitimate in Israeli politics. If we are being pushed out, we will take our rightful place,” Odeh adds.
