Keyword(s):
Significance COVID-19 restrictions are slowing the final count, but seat projections suggest neither Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu’s bloc nor his opponents have a clear path to a majority in the Knesset (parliament). The start of coalition talks will take longer than usual because of the Passover holiday that begins March 27. Impacts A successful vaccination campaign will likely free the authorities from focusing on health-related pandemic measures. Israel will continue its military campaign against Iran’s regional influence but could face more US pushback. If a coalition is achieved, the top priority will be the budget, which must by law be passed within three months.
