Top Rabbi Dov Lando Downplays Reliance on Political Leaders
Rabbi Dov Lando, a leading figure in the Degel HaTorah party, stated on Tuesday that the movement is not dependent on any specific individual or prime minister. His remarks come amid internal discussions within his circle regarding the future representation of Degel HaTorah in the Knesset.
Sources close to Rabbi Lando are reportedly considering replacing current party chairman MK Moshe Gafni and MK Uri Maklev with younger representatives in the next Knesset term. These deliberations are also part of broader power struggles concerning the leadership of the Lithuanian Haredi public.
Opinions among the rabbis are divided on the potential changes. A final decision is expected by the beginning of next week.
