Otzma Yehudit Chairman and Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir stated that verified information indicates Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's office has officially committed to several European Union countries that Ben-Gvir will not serve as a minister in the next government. Ben-Gvir revealed this commitment was conveyed to senior European officials, including foreign ministers, to gain international legitimacy.

Addressing Netanyahu directly, Ben-Gvir urged the prime minister to pursue a distinct right-wing policy and defeat adversaries, rather than relying on or seeking support from the left. Ben-Gvir accused the Likud party of attempting to weaken Otzma Yehudit and lower its poll numbers. He warned that harming his faction would lead hundreds of thousands of right-wing voters to stay home on election day, thereby endangering the entire right-wing rule.
