JERUSALEM, April 27 (Xinhua) Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has exactly a week left to form a government. Having not managed to secure enough allies for the 61-seat majority needed to form a coalition, his chances of success do not seem optimistic.
The election last month was the fourth that Israel has experienced within two years.
As the race against the clock continues for Netanyahu ahead of May 4, he is reportedly attempting to attract potential partners by offering them a rotation of the premiership, with him being second in line.
Experts said that a new general election may turn to an internal fight for Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, as the coalition government collapsed, leading the country to the fourth elections within two years. The government, formed just seven months ago, was plagued by consistent infighting. As the deadline for the approval of an annual budget passed on midnight, Israel s parliament, the Knesset, automatically dissolved. Elections are set for late March 2021, Xinhua news agency reported on Wednesday. The government, led by Netanyahu and Defence Minister Benny Gantz, failed to tackle the crisis or any other issues. Netanyahu is under indictment on three corruption charges.
