Deputy Foreign Minister Tzipi Hotovely announced that she supports Prime Minister Netanyahu’s initiative to move up the party’s primaries.
“The State of Israel and the Likud movement would benefit from the ruling party to hold primaries at the earliest convenience, and not deal with inner-party matters close to Election Day… It is clear to everyone that at this time the undisputed leader of the national camp is Binyamin Netanyahu. Any attempt to create drama surrounding this initiative is disconnected from Israeli political reality,” Hotovely said.
