Blue and white chairman MK Bnei Gantz said this morning (Tuesday) that “I do not delude myself that I will be a candidate for prime minister in the 24th Knesset.” He said this in an interview here on Net B, against the background of his speech last night, in which he called for unification in the parties of the center-left camp.
Ganz attacks Netanyahu: “After the election, he will no longer be prime minister”
Gantz referred to his entry into the unity government headed by Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, saying that “I was not wrong when I entered the government, I was wrong to believe him. “How the government works, what it does and whether it works in cooperation. All this did not happen and it is a pity.”
However, when asked if he would have entered into this partnership in retrospect, Made clear that not necessarily. “I’m sorry others did not come in with me.”
When asked if he had any doubts about his continued candidacy, he did not hide it, but made it clear that he would run in the election: “Naturally these are thoughts, but I am very determined and think I have something to offer the citizens of Israel. I am running in the upcoming elections anyway.” In addition, he added that Yair Lapid “has the skills to be prime minister. He has come a very long way in politics and has the skills to hold the bloc,” he said. The defense minister apologized for his blunt remarks in his condemnation: “I did not mean to call him a hater of people, I am sorry he was offended by my trial.”
He added that “blue and white is sitting in the center of the map, we have democratic values, do not carry the people of the right and left, and we think I can sit and talk to everyone. There is a public of 18 or 19 seats who have not yet decided who to vote for, Of two crowded years. “
