Yousef Jabareen, Chairman of the Joint List party, stated on Monday evening that a law preventing individuals indicted for crimes from forming a government could be passed after the upcoming elections with his party's support. Jabareen indicated that the Joint List would not necessarily join such a government but would provide the necessary backing. Responding to a question from Haaretz about the possibility of supporting a minority government to replace Benjamin Netanyahu, Itamar Ben-Gvir, and Bezalel Smotrich, Jabareen said the party aims to serve as a "safety net for the Arab public and the Jewish democratic public." He added that after the elections, the party would make a "responsible and leadership decision" to protect its constituents and values. The party seeks to defend the values it champions.
