    Likud: Netanyahu supports proposal made to Gantz

    The Likud party said on Thursday evening that Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu supports the Likud negotiating team's proposal to Benny Gantz that he will waive a two-year continuous tenure as is customary, and will initially serve as Prime Minister in the first six months of a unity government.

    "The additional year and a half of his term will be completed after the year and a half of Benny Gantz's term. The goal of this is preventing unnecessary elections and bring about the establishment of a broad unity government," the party said.
