Yoaz Hendel, chairman of the Reservists Party, stated that his party has established a clear rule for coalition recommendations: they will endorse the leader who brings the most "Zionist mandates." Hendel clarified this principle in an interview at the "People of the State" conference hosted by ynet and Yediot Ahronot. He explicitly ruled out sitting in a 61-seat coalition with either Haredi (ultra-Orthodox) parties or Arab parties, emphasizing that the Reservists Party would only join a government formed by those who secure the most Zionist votes. "Anyone who brings Zionist mandates and succeeds in creating a Zionist government, we will be there," Hendel asserted. He reiterated that the party's commitment is to a Zionist government, regardless of the specific leader, as long as they achieve the highest number of Zionist mandates.
