Israel: President Herzog Designates Gadi Eisenkot to Attempt to Form the Next Government
Published
Israeli President Isaac Herzog has chosen Gadi Eisenkot to try to form a new government. This decision opens a period of political negotiations in the country.
In the Israeli system, the president does not have the power to lead the government. His role is to designate a member of parliament who has the best chance of securing a majority in the Knesset, the Israeli Parliament. After his designation, the chosen person has a limited period to find allies and present a coalition.
The official designation ceremony is due to take place on Sunday. Gadi Eisenkot, a former chief of staff of the Israeli army, is a figure of the opposition. He will need to convince several parties to obtain the necessary support.
For now, details about the next steps and about the parties that will support his candidacy remain to be confirmed. Observers will closely follow the negotiations in the coming days.
