When the negotiations are over and a coalition agreement is signed between the Likud and Israel's resilience, Netanyahu will be left with a huge headache when it comes to the distribution of the files.

Last night, Netanyahu's officials made it clear that despite the ministers' interest in the matter, Netanyahu himself is not yet engaged in the matter until the coalition agreement is finalized and then they will see what the amount of ministers will do and what roles his and his partners will give to the coalition.

Today, right-wing members hold 28 ministerial positions. After partitioning with the Resilience of Israel, 58 blokes will have to settle for just 15 ministers. Likud members, with a peak of 36 seats, will have to settle for only ten ministerial positions, causing great tension between members and partners in the Likud and the bloc. Therefore, the possibility of rotating the Likud's ministerial positions is being considered.

According to the evidence, currently those who hold the highest positions in the Likud ministerial offices are Israel Katz, Gilad Arden, Yariv Levin, Miri Regev and Yoav Galant. Prime Minister Amir Ohana's favorite is also expected to be on the list. Levin, Prime Minister's relative, is expected to take on the role of transport minister, who will probably be taken from Smutrich.

As for the treasury portfolio, after the foreign portfolio was transferred to blue and white, Israel Katz considers himself a senior position, Nir Barkat carries with him an election election for the treasury portfolio and Naftali Bennett, who will probably be removed from the defense portfolio, will demand the treasury portfolio.

The first disappointed to lose from the connection are former "all of us" people.

The ensuing cabinet composition will include Gantz, Ashkenazi, Trooper / Nissenkorn. Another place may be reserved for Amir Peretz if it joins the government. The right-wing party is expected to take part in Netanyahu's cabinet, Katz, Galant, Deri and Bennett, and apparently Gilad Arden, who apparently will not be moved from the Ministry of Public Security due to his senior position in the Likud and especially during the Corona war, despite Miri Regev's well-known desire in the Ministry of Public Security.

At the weekend, there was already criticism of "right-wing" people who hold three significant cases, even though their power is worth only six seats. A Likud official says "Once upon a time, six seats would accept a senior minister or two junior ministers and that's it."

It is estimated that Rabbi Rafi Peretz will be forced to leave the education portfolio. Those expected to remain in place are Minister Deri in the Interior and Minister Litzman in Health. And Gaffney will take back the chairmanship of the finance committee.

'Resilience to Israel' will receive the foreign ministries, defense, justice, media, culture, agriculture, the economy, the environment and the Foreign Affairs and Defense Committee.
