Former MK Eli Goldschmidt will also be given a reserved spot on the Likud slate. He previously served as an MK for the Labor Party.
“After living in the Gaza border communities for years, and following the events of October 7, Goldschmidt announced that he had undergone a change in outlook. He changed his political and security views and now supports the positions of Netanyahu, Likud, and the national camp.
Eli brings with him an important, experienced, and clear-eyed voice. As someone who spent years working in the public and political arenas and became closely acquainted with different perspectives in Israeli society, he brings experience, sound judgment, and a deep understanding of Israeli reality.”
