A political analysis suggests that Gilad Erdan and Yuli Edelstein are tailoring their new political framework to voters who, like themselves, left the Likud party but remain committed to the right-wing camp. The assessment comes as the two former Likud figures prepare to launch their party.
The new political framework being formed by former Knesset Speaker Yuli Edelstein and former Israeli Ambassador to the UN Gilad Erdan is reportedly targeting a specific voter demographic: Likud leavers who remain ideologically right-wing. As The Zioneer previously reported, Edelstein announced his departure from Likud in early July, citing an inability to justify the party's policies. Erdan later joined him in forming a new party, described as a home for right-wing voters disillusioned with the current coalition. The analysis suggests that Erdan and Edelstein are positioning themselves as a right-wing alternative that does not cross into the anti-Netanyahu 'change bloc.'
