Eisenkot slams Netanyahu's unity government call as 'political spin,' says negotiations scheduled

Eisenkot accused Netanyahu of political spin over his unity government appeal, saying talks were already scheduled and demanding a break with extremists.

Yashar chairman and MK Gadi Eisenkot has dismissed Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's call for a unity government as a "political spin," revealing that such negotiations were already scheduled. The meeting is set for the following day between the negotiating teams of Yashar and Likud. Eisenkot criticized Netanyahu for attempting to desecrate a formal state proceeding in the Knesset by fostering division and incitement.

He asserted that Netanyahu's ruse will not succeed, as the conditions for joining an emergency government under his leadership include accepting his outlined principles and distancing himself from extremist elements.
