Avigdor Lieberman, chairman of the Yisrael Beiteinu party, has declared that his party will not join a government led by Benjamin Netanyahu, whether directly or indirectly. Lieberman also stated that his party's conditions for joining any coalition include the establishment of an investigation committee and the passage of a conscription law.
The Likud party responded to Lieberman's statements, though the specifics of their reaction were not detailed.
Lieberman's firm stance sets a significant hurdle for Netanyahu in forming a coalition government following the recent elections. The demand for an investigation committee and a new conscription law are key policy points for Yisrael Beiteinu, signaling a potential deadlock in coalition negotiations.
