Netanyahu: Rivlin ‘looking for a pretext’ to task Gantz with forming government
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu accuses President Reuven Rivlin of “looking for a pretext” to task rival Benny Gantz with forming the next government, in a recording published by Channel 12.
“A two, three seat gap he’ll give it to him,” Netanyahu tells associates, accusing Likud supporters of being too sure of his win and many of them won’t plan on casting a vote.
“They intend to come to the ballots in far lower numbers than Gantz voters. Wake up or we’ll lose.”
