Liberman: We’ll stay in opposition, this is no unity government

Yisrael Beytenu leader Avigdor Liberman says his right-wing party will remain in the opposition and won’t join a Netanyahu-led government with Benny Gantz’s Israel Resilience.

“The government that is going to be formed is not a unity government, but a Netanyahu government with a Haredi-messianic bloc that is being joined by Israel Resilience. Therefore, Yisrael Beytenu will serve Israel from the opposition,” says Liberman, who held a kingmaker role after the consecutive national elections this year and previously pushed for a Likud-Blue and White unity coalition.
