Member of Knesset Merav Ben Ari (Kulanu) said on Tuesday that before any bill is passed to solve the coalition crisis regarding haredi-religious parties and the military draft, "We have to pass the state budget as agreed among all the coalition factions a few months ago."
Interviewed by Israeli public radio, Ben Ari said, "If we do not vote on the state budget first, Kulanu has nothing to do in the coalition. My feeling is that the crisis will be solved."
