Minister of Construction and Housing, Yifat Shasha-Biton, said in an interview to 'Yisrael HaYom,' that "3rd elections are the worst possible outcome." She hoped that " Lieberman will see sense and join the bloc of 55 MKs led by Likud."

When asked whether Netanyahu should retire due to the charges brought against him, Shasha-Biton answered; "Netanyahu is the PM and is innocent until proven otherwise, just like any man in court."
