Israeli Prime Minister Naftali Bennett is withdrawing from political life as a new election approaches, opening the door for Benjamin Netanyahu's return.
Israeli Prime Minister Naftali Bennett
Bennett’s statement to stand down, at least for now, comes just over a week after he informed the public that he could no longer hold together his fragile coalition, sending the country to the polls for the fifth time in less than four years. An election is likely to take place in late October or early November.
In a brief televised statement from Israel’s parliament, the Knesset, Bennett said,"I do not intend to compete in the coming elections but will remain a loyal soldier in the service of this country." "The state of Israel is the love of my life," said Bennett, who entered into office a year ago heading a broad government coalition made up of eight parties spanning the political spectrum and including for the first time an Arab-Israeli party. Ultimately, it was the clash of ideologies that brought Bennett’s coalition to an end last week.
