Liberman praises coalition for calling early elections
Yisrael Beytenu party chief Avigdor Liberman is the first to issue a response to early elections being called for April.
“I congratulate the coalition heads for their decision to go to early elections,” the former defense minister, who resigned last month, says in a statement.
“For the Israeli nation, the most important thing is a new, stable government,” he adds.
Liberman expresses hope that the government will pass the contested ultra-Orthodox draft law before the elections.
