Journalist Michael Shemesh reports that Naftali Bennett approached Gilad Erdan several months ago to explore a political partnership ahead of the upcoming elections. Erdan refused the meeting, according to the report, citing his opposition to the previous 'change government' and those who were part of it.
The Zioneer has previously reported on Erdan's break with Likud and his formation of a new party with Yuli Edelstein, as well as his stated refusal to include former change government members in his party. Bennett, who served as prime minister during the change government (2021–2022), has been positioning himself for a political return, though his campaign has undergone shifts.
