The coalition government of Israel's Prime Minister Naftali Bennett is in crisis. This government was already in a minority and had only one seat more than the opposition. Now this one ally has also decided to come out of the Alliance. In Israel, four governments were in minority for two years, and for this reason, elections were also held.

 

In a report in 'The Times of Israel', Bennett's statement has come out quoting sources. Bennett says that it will be decided in the next week or two whether his government will remain or will fall.

 

Why are allies angry?

 

According to the report, the pro-Arab party United Arab List, a coalition of eight parties, is angry with the Bennett government over the issue of Palestine. It had previously had conflicts with the government over Palestinian settlements. This party says that the Bennett government is giving place to Jews in Palestine settlements and it is unfair to people of Arab origin.

 

Bennett suffered another major setback on Monday. Yamina Party MP Nir Orbach announced his departure from the alliance. With this, the government was reduced to a minority with 59 seats. Orbach alleges that Prime Minister Bennett is kneeling before the Arab Party.

 

Will Netanyahu return?

 

The Times of Israel report claimed that former Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu may once again form the government. For this, they will have to arrange only two seats. Political expert Jamani Meroj said – Nothing is fixed in the politics of Israel. This also affects the image of the country in the world. Bennett replaced Netanyahu, who is considered his political mentor, to become prime minister.

 

Netanyahu has been prime minister for 12 years. However, he was also the head of the coalition government. 60 lawmakers voted in favor of the Bennett government and 59 against it.

 

what next

 

The doors of power are still open for Netanyahu. If the Bennett government falls, there will be two ways. First - new elections should be held. Second- Netanyahu should again juggle the majority and form the government. Bennett of the Yamina Party is to remain prime minister till September 2023. He would then hand over the post to his colleague Yer Lapid. It is included in the terms of the alliance. Netanyahu has called it a bargain for power, but corruption cases are going on against him too.
