Big Picture: Endgame Netanyahu in Israel?

Показать описание

Through three inconclusive Israeli elections in 2019 and 2020, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu managed to keep his opponents at bay and remain in office. He clung to power by intensifying divisions within the opposition, ensuring that although he could not build a majority coalition, neither could they.

Yet on Thursday, more than two months after an equally inconclusive fourth election, there were several of his opponents, signing an agreement that would — if barely — make them the government, assuming they win a vote of confidence in the Parliament. For the first time in 12 years, Netanyahu would be out of power.

The Prime Minister however signaled that he would not go down without a struggle. He called on lawmakers to oppose what he called “this dangerous left-wing government.”

In this edition of Big Picture we analyse the latest political developments in Israel.
