Netanyahu's patent: how the minority will stay in power | Nadav Perry

Nadav Perry argues that Netanyahu is working to dissolve the 26th Knesset in order to remain in power as a minority, and warns the Change Bloc against legislation in an interim Knesset that will be nullified if no government is formed.

In his commentary, Nadav Perry claims that Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is pushing for an early dissolution of the 26th Knesset, driven by a desire to stay in power despite being a minority. According to Perry, 56% of voters sent the government home, but Netanyahu is unimpressed and is trying to replicate the 'patent' from 2019 – remaining in power without a parliamentary majority. Perry warns the Change Bloc that any legislation passed in the interim Knesset will be thrown out if a government is not sworn in within six weeks. He asserts that Netanyahu's Knesset speech was aimed at promoting further elections, not national unity.
