Liberman: PM’s new unity proposal merely a ‘blame game’

Avigdor Liberman, leader of the Yisrael Beytenu party which could later today hand Benny Gantz a majority of lawmakers backing him as prime minister, lambastes Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s offer of a unity government or a six-month emergency government.

“Since I’ve known Netanyahu for more than a day, I’m convinced that there is nothing behind those calls except a blame game,” Liberman writes on Facebook. “The conclusion is that Netanyahu wants to go to new elections within 6-8 months, on the wings of [his status as] the big winner against the coronavirus.”
