Political analyst Ariel Kahana said this morning (Sunday) on Kol Chai Radio that Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu will need to make one of two major concessions if he wants to form the next government: either agree to a rotation in the premiership or drop the chareidi parties from his coalition.
Kahana was addressing the options for forming the next government and the conditions under which opposition parties might agree to sit with Netanyahu.
"I think the best thing would be for the opposition to break its promise not to sit with Netanyahu. But Netanyahu also needs to give something of his own, the question is whether it will be rotation or giving up the chareidim," he added.
His remarks suggest that a unity government depends not only on the opposition changing its position, but also on Netanyahu's willingness to compromise either on the composition of his coalition or on sharing the premiership itself.
