Eisenkot cancels unity coalition talks with Likud after Netanyahu’s ‘divisive speech,’ Yashar says
The revelation of unity talks and their subsequent collapse came after Netanyahu's call on Monday for opposition leaders to join him in a single unified government in "the need of the hour."
Yashar's party has canceled coalition talks with Likud following Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's divisive speech at the Knesset. The Yashar party chairman, Gadi Eisenkot, accused Netanyahu of being unfit to continue serving and urged immediate action to form a national emergency government. Following the cancellation, Likud stated they would meet with any opposition faction seeking unity, but criticized Yashar for pursuing unity talks while continuing negotiations with Arab parties.
