Following a joint summit in Herzliya, opposition party leaders announced they will collectively recommend that President Yitzhak Herzog task Gadi Eisenkot with forming the next government. Negotiation teams will immediately begin working on drafting foundational principles and coalition agreements.
The opposition leaders concluded their meeting on Tuesday, agreeing that all parties would endorse Eisenkot, chairman of the Yishai Party, for the role of prime minister. This decision comes ahead of the swearing-in of the 26th Knesset and the commencement of presidential consultations.
In a joint statement, the parties declared their coordinated effort to replace the current government and establish a national emergency government swiftly. They stated the new government would be based on four principles outlined by Eisenkot, leveraging the parliamentary majority they claim resulted from the election outcomes. The statement asserted, "The party leaders are coordinated and will act immediately to replace the 7/10 government with a national emergency government and realize the clear parliamentary majority in the Knesset."
During the meeting, leaders discussed steps to be taken in the early days of the new Knesset to ensure government formation and prevent further elections. They also addressed claims made by the Likud party regarding election results and ongoing Central Elections Committee reviews, criticizing Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. The opposition leaders alleged that the Likud and Netanyahu are conducting a "dangerous and disturbed de-legitimization attack" against the election results and the committee.
The parties committed to defending the election results and the democratic process. Furthermore, negotiation teams will start drafting the coalition's core tenets and agreements for the 38th government. Continuous coordination among party leaders is planned to expedite the government's formation. This unified recommendation for Eisenkot, made a day before consultations with President Herzog, strengthens his prospects of receiving the first mandate to form the government.
