Chairman Avigdor Liberman of the Yisrael Beytenu Party said, after meeting with Blue and White Party Chairman Benny Gantz on Thursday morning, "What I'm missing is a message from all the Blue and White heads that they're accepting the president's outline for a unity government.

Liberman added, "From [Prime Minister Binyamin] Netanyahu we heard that he didn't accept the whole offer as I suggested. I didn't hear 'no' here, but I didn't hear 'yes' either."
