Eisenkot and Lieberman Express Confidence in Forming Stable Four-Year Government — איור מערכת שנוצר על ידי baba News, לא צילום של האירוע.

Gadi Eisenkot, head of the Yisrael Beiteinu party, and Avigdor Lieberman, head of the Yisrael Beiteinu party, met to discuss forming the next Israeli government. Following their meeting, both leaders expressed confidence in their ability to establish a stable government that would last for four years. This meeting comes as part of ongoing political consultations aimed at reaching understandings for the upcoming government's formation, after President Yitzhak Herzog tasked Eisenkot with the formation.

A joint statement released after the meeting indicated that both politicians "expressed their full confidence in their ability to form a stable government for four years." The meeting occurred amidst intensive negotiations among "change bloc" parties seeking to establish a new government after the elections held on October 27.

Negotiations are facing disagreements regarding the composition of the future government and the parties that can provide a parliamentary majority. Eisenkot is advocating for a national emergency government based on four core principles: recognizing Israel as a Jewish and democratic state, adhering to the values of the Declaration of Independence, imposing military or national/civil service on everyone, and dismantling Hamas's military and governmental capabilities.

Conversely, Lieberman has opposed a government reliant on the support of Arab parties but has shown willingness to make concessions regarding the participation of Haredi parties, provided agreements are reached on the conscription law.

Eisenkot received the mandate to form the government from President Herzog after receiving recommendations from 67 Knesset members, while Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu received recommendations from 46 members. Eisenkot has 28 days to form the government, with a possible 14-day extension. The announced outcomes of the meeting suggest both parties are committed to the possibility of forming a four-year government, despite existing political differences on its structure and formation conditions.
