Yisrael Beytenu leader Avigdor Liberman has ruled out a joint run with Gadi Eisenkot in the next elections, stating that he plans to run to be head of government. Liberman's comments come as reports suggest Eisenkot was seeking to unite centrist parties. Liberman emphasizes the differences in policy, security, and social views between him and Eisenkot, as well as other centrist leaders. Elections are not scheduled until October 2026, with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's coalition remaining strong.
