MK Yoav Segalovitz (Blue & White) reacted to the right-wing bloc's statement that if Yuli Edelstein is forced from his position as Knesset Speaker, all negotiations for a unity government will cease.

"Threats won't help. Yuli Edelstein will be replaced, not forcibly removed. The post of Knesset Speaker isn't private property. Statements like these made by the Likud only serve to highlight the current cynicism in this difficult period," he said.
