The Joint List party announced on October 28 its readiness to collaborate with other political forces to remove Benjamin Netanyahu from power and establish a new government. The statement indicated a desire to create a government that would alter current policies concerning the Arab population, recognize their rights, and end the exclusion of Arab parties from national politics.
