-- MK Yitzchak Pindrus (UTJ)

Deputy Minister Uri Maklev, also of UTJ, said something very similar this morning, saying all efforts will be made to not come to a situation of the question to support Saar or not as Netanyahu is the first choice.

Everyone knows anyway what would happen if someone else other than Netanyahu would be tasked with forming a coalition. UTJ and Shas would try to get in the coalition, as long as their issues and concerns and considered. What they said is no chiddush. But they said it. That is the chiddush. They openly spoke about possible support for a candidate other than Netanyahu. And, Bibi can't be happy about that, though that is beside the point.
