Elkin's attempt to join the right throws in an embarrassing light allegations he has made in recent days against the right-wing party, such as criticizing the ambiguity policy adopted by Bennett the day after the election, in response to the question of whether he would agree to sit under Netanyahu.

Thus, Elkin attacked Bennett this week and said that "if you think Netanyahu, with all his rights, should be replaced, you can not say a minute after that that you are willing to sit under him. It is unfair and wrong."

The confrontation between the right and new hope in the current election campaign is one of the most prominent battles between the parties, and it focuses mainly around the continuation of Netanyahu's tenure.

While Saar rules out any possibility of a meeting with Netanyahu, Bennett claims that he is required to replace the prime minister but is unwilling to commit that he will not sit under him in the next government.

Despite the attacks of new hope against Bennett, Saar uses his image as a possible partner in the next government he heads.

Elkin denied the allegations.

"The claim sounds delusional to me, at least I do not know any dialogue between me or anyone on my behalf about joining the right," he said in a response.

"It's no secret that I have always had a good relationship with Bennett and Shaked, and if I wanted to join them they would probably be very happy about it, but I believe that Gideon Saar, with the experience, practical achievements and leadership he has is the right man to replace Netanyahu and lead the country. Israel in the coming years. "

"For the sake of Elkin's honor, we will not expand on the subject."
