Both men meet this Monday to discuss possible political frameworks, but sources in both parties admitted that they were merely trying to harm each other ahead of an election that will be set in March 2020. \nThe two parties had agreed on March 2nd to be the next election date. Otherwise, an election would be automatically set for March 10th, if no government is formed, unless a law is passed in advance to set a different date. It\u00a0would be Israel&#8217;s third national\u00a0vote within a year.\u00a0Opinion polls have predicted no dramatic shifts among voters since the inconclusive elections in April and September.\nGantz to Netanyahu: \u201cGive up immunity\u201d\nThe mutual recriminations between Israel\u2019s two biggest parties began when Gantz called upon Netanyahu to promise not to seek immunity from prosecution, saying it could lead to negotiations that could still prevent the election. \nPrime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu was charged last month with fraud, bribery and breach of fraud. Moreover, corruption and political disarray have threatened to curtail Netanyahu&#8217;s decade-long hold on power.\nNetanyahu is under no legal obligation to resign following the indictment. Until a new government is formed, a caretaker premier should remain in post. This process could stretch months past a March ballot if coalition-building is taken into account. Netanyahu would face an internal Likud leadership election, before the national poll. Netanyahu said in a speech that he hoped to avoid another election, \u201cbut if one is forced upon us, we will win big.\u201d\n\u00a0\n","author":42,"featured_media":3867,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","template":"","tags":[5754,5764,5761,5763,5751,5756,5753,2961,5750,5759,5762],"location":[1021],"class_list":["post-28701","news","type-news","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","tag-business","tag-communities","tag-decision-makers","tag-direct-broadcasting","tag-economy","tag-employment","tag-entrepriseslife","tag-institutions","tag-news","tag-politics","tag-trending","location-israel"],"short_url":"","have_related_news":null,"chapo":"Israeli next election is expected to be held in March 2020, after both Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and his rival Benny Gantz failed to form a coalition, throwing the ball into parliament's court.
