Shas recommends Netanyahu as PM, urges broad unity government
Shas leader Aryeh Deri tells President Reuven Rivlin that he recommends Benjamin Netanyahu as the next prime minister, advocating efforts to form a broad unity government or a short-term emergency government advocated by Netanyahu.
He argues that there is “no chance” of forming a minority government headed by Benny Gantz backed by the Arab-led Joint List, citing talks with “very important people” in the centrist party, trying to persuade Rivlin to throw his support behind a unity government and make efforts in that direction before deciding whom to task with forming a coalition.
