Minister Orit Struk, along with MK-designates Itamar Eitam and Zvika Mor, has called for the formation of a broad national government led by Benjamin Netanyahu, advocating for the cessation of political boycotts between parties. Following a meeting with President Isaac Herzog, Struk stated on Wednesday that her party opposes the involvement of "nationalist Arab parties" in shaping government policy, arguing that parties viewing Israel's existence as a disaster cannot influence the country's path. She emphasized that Netanyahu, having received the largest number of mandates, should lead the government. Struk clarified that support for Netanyahu should not preclude cooperation with other parties, urging direct negotiations and the abandonment of political boycotts to form a broad national government. MK-designate Zvika Mor echoed this sentiment, calling on all "nationalist parties" concerned with Israel's fate to convene and resolve differences to address significant national challenges. MK-designate Itamar Eitam also urged parties to collaborate despite disagreements, stating that just as they fought and overcame challenges together in the past, they can now cooperate for the sake of Israel.
