Yinter, chairman of the Am Echad Yisrael party, delivered his first public remarks following his party's significant defeat in the recent elections. He stated that the party's journey is long-term and has just begun, despite the disappointing election results.
Yinter accused the "national camp" of running a "dirty campaign" against his party, asserting that without it, Israel would now have a strong right-wing government. He specifically claimed that his party "burned opposition votes, not right-wing votes," suggesting their electoral performance inadvertently harmed other opposition factions rather than the ruling parties.
