A Likud-Visher meeting, what will Netanyahu ask for and what is Eisenkot clinging to?
Attention in Israel turns to the upcoming meeting between the delegations of the "Likud" party led by Netanyahu and the "Yisher" party led by Gadi Eisenkot, to discuss the composition of the next government, against the background of fundamental differences of opinion regarding its leadership and the composition of the governing coalition.
Channel 14: Netanyahu insists on receiving the prime ministership first if a rotation is agreed upon, while Eisenkot demands to head it and remove Ben Gabir's party from the coalition.
Channel 13: Ishar's party rejects the principle of rotation and insists on Eisenkot entering the prime ministership, while expressing willingness to make concessions in other cases.
Yedioth Ahronoth newspaper: The chance of forming a unity government between the two parties is very slim since both parties stick to their positions regarding the presidency.
Eisenkot goes through 3 paths to form the government, including negotiations with the Likud and the ultra-orthodox parties, and the understandings with the Arab parties regarding the vote in the Knesset.
