Minister Gila Gamliel from the Likud Party told public radio on Thursday morning, "The national camp, together with [Yisrael Beytenu Party Chairman Avigdor] Liberman, have the same number of seats as they have ever had. Unfortunately, Liberman has reinvented himself. He is a very worthy man and a very serious guy and I hope he finds the solution."

Gamliel added, "Whoever sets conditions - the responsibility for third elections will be on him. I see no reason why anyone will replace [Prime Minister Binyamin] Netanyahu. Nobody will dictate to us. We have established rules, a constitution and elections."
