Rivlin invites would-be PMs to dinner, (hand)shakes
Channel 12 news reports that President Reuven Rivlin has invited Benny Gantz and Benjamin Netanyahu to reconvene at his home for dinner Wednesday evening.
The three held a first meeting on Monday night and agreed to begin unity talks.
Political pundits are looking for any clues as to whom Rivlin will task with forming a government and whether the sides will be able to come together.
Body language expert Anat Hecht Fisher tells Army Radio that Rivlin’s handshake Monday with Netanyahu was businesslike, while he grasped Gantz with two hands. “He’s broadcasting empathy, warmth and closeness to the Blue and White head,” she says.
