Amid crisis, PM declares: 61-seat coalition is not an option

(Worthy News) – If Yisrael Beytenu leader Avigdor Lieberman pulls out of the coalition, there will be no choice but to hold early elections, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu told Likud ministers on Sunday.

Though a 61-seat coalition in a 120 MK parliament would still constitute a majority, “61 is not an option,” Netanyahu said.

“We have major tasks ahead of us. For that to happen, all the [coalition] parties need to reach an agreement and decide that they are continuing together,” he told the ministers. “We are working to secure that because the citizens of Israel want a stable government that will complete its term.” [ Source: Israel Hayom (Read More…) ]
