In the evening on Saturday, November 4, Israeli Defense Minister Avigdor Lieberman and Finance Minister Moshe Kahlon took turns to declare that the parties Our Home Israel and Kulana would never join the coalition led by Avi Gabay.
First, this statement was made by Defense Minister Avigdor Lieberman. In an interview with the "Meetings with the Press" program on the "Reshet" channel, the head of the defense department said: "Avi Gabay can not be considered as a relevant candidate for the post of prime minister." Our House Israel "and" Kulan "will never enter the coalition led by Gabay ". Lieberman refused to motivate his refusal to cooperate with the head of the Zionist camp. Recall that Gabay left the government of Netanyahu in protest against the appointment of Lieberman to the post of Minister of Defense. "It's not revenge, there's no revenge in politics, there's a thousand and one reasons why we will not work in his government, I'll only go into the right government," Lieberman said.
Moshe Kahlon, in turn, said in an interview with the news service Keshet: "I want to state with all certainty that Kulan will not be a fig leaf in the left government." I belong to the national camp, opposed the disengagement, I stand for the indivisibility of Jerusalem Under no circumstances will we enter the left government or the government led by the Labor party, while sources in Kulan stressed that Kakhlon denied participation in the coalition led by Gabay, but not in the coalition that would to enter Gabay.
Let's add that Lieberman's interview was broadcast first, and in it he spoke on behalf of both parties.
The press service of the "Zionist Camp" refused to comment on these statements of Lieberman and Kahlon.
