Political entities negotiating with Knesset Speaker Yuli Edelstein have asked him to already end his round of meetings and announce the return of the mandate to form a government to President Reuven Rivlin even before the end of the 21 days given to the Knesset, according to Yisrael Hayom.
The sources said, "It's a waste of time," explaining, "There is more distancing than rapprochement." Edelstein replied that he still wanted to finish the round of meetings and try to see if there could be any movement.
