Netanyahu’s Last Efforts
Before Tuesday’s elections, Israel’s prime minister made last efforts to warn that his right-wing government can be voted out of office, Euronews reports.
Benjamin Netanyahu turned to his supporters to help him secure a fourth term in office, at a rally in Tel Aviv on Sunday. During his address in the rally he particularly noted:
“Our rivals are investing a huge effort to harm me and the Likud, to open a gap between my party, the Likud, and (our rivals), and if we don’t close this gap, there is a real danger that a left-wing government will rise to power,” Netanyahu said.
According to analysts soft-spoken and witty representatives of left-wing party focused on the economy and consequently benefited from voters’ weariness with Netanyahu’s obsession with security.
