MK Matan Kahana (National Unity Party) spoke on Sunday evening about his concern over the possibility that the coalition will unilaterally promote legislation of the judicial reform.
"We did not suspend the talks [on a compromise], it was Netanyahu who did it, who chose to play tricks at the expense of the State of Israel. We really wanted to continue the talks, but what is required is for the agreement to be realized, and for a Judicial Selection Committee to be elected. The National Unity Party really wants to return to the talks at the President's Residence, because there are issues we can agree on," Kahana said in an interview with Radio 103FM.
"I think that if one of the parties wins in a knockout, it will be a tragedy for the people of Israel. If in the end some sort of reform ends up failing t pass, I think it will be a tragic situation," he added.
He was asked if a unity government could be a solution to the current situation and replied, "If I am dragged into an imaginary world, then it is clear that the best interest of the State of Israel is to have a broad unity government that relies on the central and moderate forces on the political map - this is the only government that can deal with the enormous challenges that the State of Israel is facing."
