Gadi Eisenkot, chairman of the 'Yashar' party, stated Tuesday that he would not compromise his principles during coalition negotiations for the next government, emphasizing his commitment to national and military service for all Israeli citizens. "I am not going to put our conscience aside," Eisenkot declared. "Service for all citizens of Israel, we will not fold this flag."
Eisenkot, who received the mandate to form a government from President Yitzhak Herzog after securing the recommendation of 67 Knesset members, described Israel as being at a crossroads during one of its most challenging periods since its establishment. He stressed, "We have a compass and I will not put it aside." The 'Yashar' chairman affirmed that his long-standing commitment to the values of the Declaration of Independence and service for all Israelis, military, national, and civil, will be central to the government formation talks. He also referenced the heavy price paid by reservist soldiers.
Eisenkot clarified that he would negotiate with any political partner who recognizes his four core principles, including the commitment to service for all citizens. He indicated openness to working with parties such as 'Gesher', 'The Democrats', and 'Yisrael Beiteinu', and extending a hand to any partner acknowledging these principles.
Meanwhile, Naftali Bennett, chairman of the 'Bayit Yehudi' party, announced that he is doing everything possible to assist Eisenkot in forming a government. "We have received the necessary tools to form a good government in Israel," Bennett said, adding that reservists on the country's borders are calling for change. He expressed urgency in establishing a "Zionist repair government" as quickly as possible to implement a "servants' revolution" and begin repairing the state.
Bennett's remarks come amid pressure to form a government swiftly, with Eisenkot having 28 days to complete the task.
