Netanyahu Pledges Broad National Unity Government and an End to Boycotts
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said Saturday night, as he prepares for elections, that he will work to build broad agreement on the most divisive issues in Israeli politics and society. At a press conference, he said he intends to advance a “broad national government” that would reach understandings on military draft policy and the judicial system.
“I do not boycott anyone. We need to stop the boycotts,” Netanyahu said. His remarks framed the campaign around efforts to reduce internal political rifts and form a wider coalition.
Minister Gideon Saar responded that he supports Netanyahu’s message, calling it the direction the country needs. Saar said that after October 7, 2023, there is no longer room for “politics of boycotts and disqualifications,” adding that Israel will continue fighting for its existence and future in the coming years.
Saar concluded that a broad national government is therefore a clear national interest.
