Moshe Feiglin Open to Joining Forces with Ofer Winter as Second-in-Command
Moshe Feiglin, leader of the Zehut party, expressed openness to forming technical alliances with smaller right-wing parties during a Wednesday interview on Channel 14. He specifically named Ofer Winter as a potential partner and stated he would be willing to serve as Winter's number two. Feiglin said, "I would be very happy to form a technical bloc with any right-wing party, especially with Ofer Winter. He is certainly a very good option for me." He added uncertainty about Winter's current political commitments but emphasized his readiness if Winter is open.
When asked if he would accept a subordinate role, Feiglin replied affirmatively, calling the position "technically insignificant." However, he firmly ruled out joining a unity government with Gadi Eisenkot, stating, "Zehut will never form a left-wing government. That must be clear."
Regarding the possibility of withdrawing from the race if polls showed Zehut below the electoral threshold, Feiglin rejected the idea outright, saying, "Because I care about you and our children." He further justified his stance by reminding that "the disaster came under a right-wing government," implying the need for his continued participation to protect right-wing interests.
Feiglin's comments come amid ongoing discussions about right-wing party alliances ahead of upcoming elections, with smaller factions exploring cooperation to maximize their electoral impact.
