UTJ MK expresses reservations about joining the left: "There will be problems every week"

MK-designate Eliyahu Starck from United Torah Judaism addressed the possibility of his party joining the left bloc to form the next government, clarifying that it is a hypothetical scenario. In an interview, he emphasized that his party prefers a partnership with the right, but did not rule out other options. Starck said the faction operates in full coordination, and the main goal is to regulate the status of yeshiva students. When asked why he does not rule out sitting with Avigdor Lieberman, he replied: "If we slam the door on other people – I think in politics there is no place for that." Starck clarified that UTJ supports Prime Minister Netanyahu's call for a unity government, but warned that joining the left would lead to problems every week.
