Due to the Israeli Prime Minister, Netanyahu’s, unsuccessful attempt at forming a government, Benny Gantz, who won the recent election, will have his own opportunity. It is believed unlikely he will succeed and a joint government is advised. Netanyahu says he has extensively worked on a joint government plan with Gantz. Netanyahu’s legal issues, however, are the grounds on which Gantz disagrees with being co-prime ministers. Discussions of Netanyahu suspending himself and which would serve first as Prime Minister are major topics of discussion. Gantz, however, has not yet failed to form a government.
