Arab countries are hoping for the formation of a stable Israeli government with broad public legitimacy, though they have not officially commented on the recent election results, which currently show no clear victor. A diplomat from an Arab nation with ties to Israel told Kan News that stability is the key word for the next government. These nations desire a government that is not dependent on fluctuating political considerations, unlike the current Netanyahu government.
According to the diplomat, only such a stable government could advance diplomatic initiatives and understandings in tense areas such as Gaza, Judea and Samaria, Lebanon, and Syria. To date, no Arab country has publicly addressed the Israeli election outcomes. This reticence stems from a desire not to appear to interfere in Israeli elections and from the uncertainty surrounding the government's formation prospects.
Many Arab and Muslim nations reportedly disapprove of the current Netanyahu government's regional policies and the growing influence of ministers Itamar Ben-Gvir and Bezalel Smotrich. However, they recognize that an unstable Israeli government would be incapable of enacting significant changes in relations. Despite this, the bloc seeking change has not approached the Joint List for coalition negotiations.
