Opposition leader Yair Lapid told Naftali Bennett he’s willing to surrender the second slot in their joint “Yachad” party to bring in former IDF Chief of Staff Gadi Eisenkot.
The move is being described as a PR stunt. Lapid informed Bennett he would step aside from the No. 2 position on their shared list to make room for Eisenkot, who previously served as IDF Chief of Staff.
