Odeh confirms meeting with Gantz next week
Joint List leader Ayman Odeh says he will meet with Prime minister-designate Benny Gantz early next week to discuss forming a government.
Odeh confirms a Channel 13 report that said the two would meet on Tuesday.
“We still have not confirmed a date but it is reasonable to assume the meeting will take place on Tuesday,” he says. “We will determine the time and date for the meeting on Sunday.”
Earlier, Odeh called on Gantz to form a minority government that includes the Arab-majority parties, saying that even if it doesn’t last, the “courageous” move would be worth it for the single purpose of ousting Benjamin Netanyahu as prime minister.
