Lapid to Rivlin: I am honored to inform you…
Here’s the text of Yesh Atid’s announcement:
After intense work on behalf of all the citizens of Israel, and a two-year-long political crisis, the Chairperson of Yesh Atid, Yair Lapid, informed President Rivlin that he has succeeded in forming a government.
This is the message that was sent a short while ago to the Office of the President:
In accordance with Clause 13(b) of the Basic Law: The Government – I am honored to inform you that I have succeeded in forming a government. The government will be an alternate government in accordance with Clause 13(a) of the Basic Law: The Government, and MK Naftali Bennett will serve as prime minister first.
