Likud minister: Unity government a possibility — if Liberman is out
Not all Likud members are ruling out the possibility of a unity government with Blue and White’s Benny Gantz.
Justice Minister Amir Ohana, for example, tells Army Radio that it’s a possibility, so long as Avigdor Liberman is not a part of it.
He also floats the possibility that Labor leader Amir Peretz will join, citing the upcoming Trump peace plan as incentive for the dovish party leader to enter a Netanyahu-led coalition.
