Smotrich says willing to head to opposition ‘with our heads held high’

Religious Zionism leader Bezalel Smotrich reaffirms that his far-right party won’t support a right-wing government propped up by the Islamist Ra’am party under any circumstances.

“If we need to pay a price for this and go to the opposition, we will do so with our heads held high,” Smotrich tells a faction meeting in the Knesset. “We won’t sell out our values.”
