Netanyahu seeks guarantees to avoid an election
11/18/2014
Meretz proposes bill to dissolve Knesset; Lapid: Not the right time; 3 parties on Right will form majority, says Liberman.
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu intends to seek assurances from his coalition partners that they will be loyal and work better together in the coming year in order to prevent elections, sources close to him said on Monday.
Netanyahu has been meeting with ministers and advisers to help decide whether to initiate an election or settle differences with his coalition partners. Before midnight on Monday he was leaning toward the latter.
The prime minister has told confidants to prepare for an election, Channel 10 reported.
But senior Likud ministers close to Netanyahu who would be involved in such preparations told The Jerusalem Post that they have received no such directives.
