The chairman of the Religious Zionism Party, Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich, revealed for the first time that Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu had planned to form a government with Ra’am leader Mansour Abbas.
“This was the intention after the last Knesset elections,” Smotrich claimed in an interview with Channel 14 News.
“The Patriots” host Yinon Magal, who sat next to him in the studio, did not deny the claim and responded, “What happened, I agree with you.”
