Likud to ease up on Liberman in light of poor polling numbers — report
Add ToI as a Preferred Source on GoogleThe Likud party has decided that it will ease up on the Yisrael Beytenu party in the run-up to the elections with the fellow right-wing party increasingly at risk of not passing the electoral threshold.
The Kan public broadcaster reports that Likud will not campaign in the sector of Russian immigrants, from which a large bulk of Yisrael Beytenu supporters stem. In addition, the ruling party will not put out campaign material in Russian, and members have even been instructed not to go after Yisrael Beytenu chairman Avigdor Liberman, in the press.
