Yamina chief Naftali Bennett said Thursday Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu “has chosen to get rid of Yamina, which served as his national backbone.”
In a Facebook post after the collapse of negotiations with Likud, he claims Netanyahu has chosen “a path that is not right-wing. A path without sovereignty, without governance, without a national posture.”
He asserts he did not seek power in his coalition talks with Likud, but rather “to have influence.” But he said the prime minister “communicated with us only through video clips and tweets.”
