(Worthy News) – No agreement was reached Tuesday night between Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Blue and White Party leader Benny Gantz, who finished coalition talks at the Prime Minister’s Office in Tel Aviv after only 45 minutes, and eight days before next Wednesday night’s deadline to form a government.
The Likud complained after the meeting, which Netanyahu initiated, that Gantz did not permit Netanyahu to go first as prime minister even for a short period of time.
