Joint List Chairman Youssef Jabareen said in an interview at Ynet and Yedioth Ahronoth's 'People of the State' conference that "at the top of our priorities is to send home the government of bloodshed that has made our lives miserable over all the recent years. We will be ready to provide a safety net for a real and substantial alternative. A strong and large Joint List can be a decisive factor." He added that he is not in contact with the Change Camp: "We are not offering a blank check, we are not in anyone's pocket. When they see that there are no other options but cooperation with us, we will open negotiations and present our demands."
