Kadima rejects Lieberman's call to join coalition

Kadima responded to reports that senior Yisrael Beiteinu officials have called on the party to join the coalition instead of the Labor Party.

"Kadima wants to make it clear to all coalition partners in the 'Biberman' government interested in replacing each other as an excuse for being in the government that this coalition is (Prime Minister Benjamin) Netanyahu's clear choice, while Kadima is the alternative," the party said in a statement.
