The leader of the Yisrael Beiteinu party, Avigdor Liberman, sharply criticized the head of the Democrats party, Yair Golan, saying that his statements about a Palestinian state and the evacuation of settlements 'work for Netanyahu.' At a meeting called 'Speaking of Revival,' Liberman expressed confidence in his camp's victory with a 'significant gap' and allowed for the possibility of 'taking a few mandates from Likud, but without Netanyahu.' He stressed that he does not intend to cooperate with the prime minister and would not even give him the portfolio of Minister of Regional Cooperation. Liberman also categorically rejected giving the Democrats the portfolios of defense, internal security, or justice. In response, Golan accused Liberman of 'serving Netanyahu's incitement campaign' and called for acting as a bloc to win, then argue within the government.
