Zionist parliament to vote no confidence in Bennet-Lapid coalition government.
Hebrew-language sources say the Zionist opposition, led by Likud leader Benjamin Netanyahu and former prime minister, will vote today (Monday) on a plan to lose confidence in the Naftali-Bennett-Jair Lapid coalition government.
According to the Palestinian Information Center, Zionist TV Channel 7 stated that the plan will be voted on at the beginning of today’s (Monday) Knesset session.
The network noted that the Zionist regime’s ruling coalition has decided to boycott today’s meeting in protest of the proposal in the absence of Prime Minister Naftali Bennett.
Meanwhile, Israeli Prime Minister Naftali Bennett had previously said in closed-door meetings that his cabinet would likely fall before Prime Minister Yair Lapid.
The Times of Israel reports that Naftali Bennett said in a closed-door meeting last month that he expects his current coalition cabinet to step down by August 2023, when Lair Lapid is set to take over as caretaker prime minister. Hold on to last. “My guess is that the rotation of power will not happen,” he said. “The government is likely to be dissolved between the time of the budget approval and the time of the change of power.”
On the other hand, the attempt of Benjamin Netanyahu’s faction to lose trust in the Israeli cabinet is scheduled to take place today at the Knesset meeting, when Bennett is scheduled to travel to Glasgow, Scotland, to attend the UN Climate Change Summit.
According to the ruling party announcing a boycott of today’s Knesset meeting and the absence of parties in the ruling coalition, it is said that the Zionist opposition, led by Likud leader and former prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu, may be seeking to lose confidence in the Naftali coalition government. Bennett-Jair Lapid to pass, but that does not mean overthrowing the government, because the collapse of the government requires a positive vote of 61 members of the Knesset on this plan, but the opposition current, with 6 seats on the joint Arab list, ultimately has 59 votes.
