Israëlische Netanyahu stevent af op verkiezingswinst

By Duncan Mil

April 10, 2019 - Premier Benjamin Netanyahu is waarschijnlijk zeker van een vijfde termijn, ondanks de nek-aan-nekrace die zijn Likudpartij voert met de centrumalliantie Blauw en Wit van voormalig legerchef Benny Gantz.

Nearly all right-wing parties declared Tuesday they will recommend Benjamin Netanyahu to President Reuven Rivlin to form the next government.

Kulanu, the United Right-Wing Parties, Shas and United Torah Judaism together got 25 Knesset seats. With Likud -- which received 35 Knesset seats -- the right-wing bloc would achieve the minimum 60 Knesset seats required for forming a coalition, or 65 seats if Avigdor Lieberman, the leader of Yisrael Beiteinu, recommends Netanyahu for the premiership.
