Democrats Chair Yair Golan Congratulates Likud on Primary List, Predicts Their Defeat

Yair Golan, chairman of the Democratic Party, responded to the Likud party's primary election results on Tuesday morning. He congratulated Likud on selecting an "excellent list," but clarified that he meant it ironically. Golan described the list as composed of convicted criminals, suspects awaiting prosecution decisions, political operatives, and loud social media figures who have done nothing for Israeli citizens or their voters. He concluded his remarks by wishing Likud "good luck in the opposition," signaling his confidence in the Democratic and liberal camp's eventual victory over Likud.
