Chairman of the Ra'am party, MK Mansour Abbas, distanced himself from statements about toppling the coalition in an interview with the Arab newspaper "Ilaf".
"Ra'am will not overthrow the government and there will be no reason for doing so," he said. "The coalition is fragile, but we will try to get the most for the Arab sector. The partnership is built on honoring agreements. If we do not succeed in getting the results we want, [the right wing members of the coalition] won't achieve anything either."
