Israeli President Reuven Rivlin told lawmakers to name a candidate to form a new government after PM Benjamin Netanyahu and challenger Benny Gantz both failed
JERUSALEM - Israel’s president told lawmakers on Thursday to name a candidate to form a new government after Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and challenger Benny Gantz both failed, a development that probably sets the stage for a third election within a year.
Netanyahu has denied any wrongdoing, and he said he would make a statement at 1830 GMT from his official residence. During a 21-period mandated by law, Knesset legislators can nominate anyone in the 120-seat assembly to form a government. Gantz and Netanyahu had looked at a power-share within a national unity government after they came neck-and-neck in both elections. But disputes about details, such as the timeline for rotating the premiership between them, were not resolved.
But even amid the suspicions, Netanyahu was able to keep most of his right-wing allies loyal, effectively blocking Gantz’s path to the premiership. Many citizens voiced resignation and rancour at a deadlock that has deepened worries over economic and national security matters.
