A Yamina Party delegation, led by Member of Knesset Ayelet Shaked, recommended to President Reuven Rivlin on Sunday to assign Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu with the task of forming the next government.
Shaked called on Chairman Benny Gantz of the Blue and White Party and Amir Peretz of the Labor-Gesher-Meretz bloc to establish a permanent unity government, and expressed opposition to a Gantz-led minority government that would include the Joint List of predominantly Arab parties, some of whose members are on record as supporting terror.
