Shalom Shlomo joins coalition talks between Yashar and Likud

Shalom Shlomo, a representative of the Together party, is expected to join direct coalition negotiations between Gadi Eisenkot's Yashar party and Likud. The talks aim to explore a national unity government.

The 'Together' party of Naftali Bennett and Yair Lapid is expected to send a representative to participate in the direct negotiations between Likud and Gadi Eisenkot's Yashar party. The representative is Shalom Shlomo, a veteran political figure who previously served as Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's political advisor, and later worked with Yair Lapid and Naftali Bennett. He now operates on their behalf within their joint political activities. The joining of a representative from the 'Together' party to the negotiations adds further political significance to the talks, as it involves a representative from a party that is not one of the two direct participants in the discussions. This expands the involvement of center-left bloc elements in the talks between Eisenkot and Likud. The move comes against the backdrop of efforts to advance coalition negotiations, as Prime Minister Netanyahu continues to call for the formation of a national unity government, while Eisenkot is also holding talks with other parties in an attempt to form a coalition under his leadership.
