Matan Kahana Urges Gantz, Winter Parties to Unite or Withdraw
MK Matan Kahana announced that his party, "Yashar!" (Righteous!), has finalized its electoral list and issued a call to the parties led by Benny Gantz and Ofir Winter. Kahana stated that these parties must either merge or withdraw from the upcoming elections.
Kahana emphasized his party's aspiration to form the broadest possible "Zionist government," indicating a willingness to cooperate with religious parties. He also addressed the controversy surrounding a planned rally for Rabbi Ovadia Yosef, stating that such an event should honor his memory without being political.
Kahana's remarks suggest a strategic move to consolidate the political center and right-wing factions ahead of the elections, aiming to prevent vote fragmentation and maximize the chances of forming a stable governing coalition.
