Likud leader Benjamin Netanyahu vows he will not quit if he fails to form a government after the upcoming elections.

Speaking at a conference organized by the ultra-Orthodox Kikar HaShabat newspaper, the former prime minister is asked if he will keep leading his political bloc if he again fails to get a majority.

“I’m staying to lead it until we return a right-wing government to the State of Israel and as long as the Israeli citizens believe in it,” he says.
