Israeli political analyst Dahlia Scheindlin says it is too early to consider Benyamin Netanyahu definitively out of power, despite the political difficulties facing Israel. The analysis comes as Gadi Eisenkot has 45 days to try to form a government, according to France 24.

Israeli political analyst Dahlia Scheindlin says it is premature to rule Benjamin Netanyahu out of Israeli politics, as Gadi Eisenkot has 45 days to try to form a government. Speaking to François Picard on France 24, she says it is still too early to consider Netanyahu’s political career over, according to France 24.

Eisenkot was tasked by Israeli President Isaac Herzog with forming a parliamentary majority after Herzog decided to entrust him with forming the government. Scheindlin analyses the coalition attempt in a context marked by difficulties in securing a majority and by Washington’s positions, according to France 24.

The statement comes after Herzog’s decision to task Eisenkot with forming the Israeli government, announced on 7 November, and as Eisenkot said he was ready to govern with Netanyahu allies on 9 November.
