The statement comes amid ongoing internal Likud negotiations over the primary list.
MK Avichai Buaron said Tuesday that Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu will receive eight reserved slots on the Likud party list for the upcoming Knesset elections. Buaron, a Likud member, stated that it is the right of the movement's leader to receive these slots while maintaining the proper balances. Earlier this month, The Zioneer reported that Minister Eli Cohen estimated Netanyahu would secure 6-7 reserved slots. A subsequent bulletin noted that Netanyahu had reserved one of the eight slots for Likud chairman Haim Katz. The latest statement from Buaron suggests the number has been finalized at eight, though no official confirmation from the Likud party or Netanyahu's office has been released. The issue remains a matter of internal party politics as the Likud prepares for primary elections.
