Four days to the end of Yair Lapid's mandate, Bish Atid is advancing with the plan to form a change government, and expresses cautious optimism that right-wing chairman Naftali Bennett will officially announce his joining the government and resume negotiations between party teams. Three of the seven parties that are supposed to be part of the coalition - Yisrael Beiteinu, Meretz and Labor, and hope to reach agreements in the next two days with blue and white and new hope.Bennett, who delivered positive messages before joining Shabbat to join the Lapid government, -The next two days.

Bennett and Lapid met on Thursday, for the first time since the cessation of talks during Operation Wall Guard, and according to political sources, Bennett signaled that he agreed to a proposal put forward by the bloc opposing Netanyahu - to become prime minister for two years in a rotating government.

Simultaneously with reports of progress at Yam Bennett to Lapid, the Likud also increased the pressure on the right: On Thursday night, the Likud submitted a final proposal to Bennett, according to which if a government is formed, he will serve as defense minister and prime minister for a second and a half years, after Netanyahu. To the right are six armor on the Likud list.

However, Bennett has so far refused to reach a final agreement and sign the agreement with the Likud, given the fact that Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu currently has no path to forming a government, and according to the political system, he is leading to a fifth election.

Bennett's refusal to sign has raised fears in the Likud that the change government is becoming a reality, and in the coming days there will be increased pressure on members of the right and a new hope not to join the center-left bloc. Among other things, Netanyahu conveyed messages to New Hope chairman Gideon Saar that he would be willing to consider giving him the prime minister in rotation if he joins a right-wing government, and even consider a tenure allotment. On the right, MK Ayelet Shaked is at the center of the Likud's calls and proposals. Shaked has so far opposed the change government, but if it is convinced that this is the only choice other than a fifth election, it may change its position.

According to Yesh Atid's plan, the intention is to close with all parties except the right and then reach an agreement with Bennett, so that Lapid will inform the president of the country he has managed to form a government by midnight on Wednesday.

After that, he will have another week to sign the agreements and bring the government to the Knesset for approval.

The majority in the vote depends on agreements with the RAAM, which is supposed to support the government in exchange for understandings, roles and budgets for Arab society.

According to sources involved in the negotiations, there are more gaps in talks with the parties and especially with the right-wing parties - right and new hope, but they are small and solvable. Apart from disputes over the division of cases, most of the significant gaps concern issues of religion and state and the justice system. According to the outline of the government, Bennett and Lapid will rotate the role of prime minister and foreign minister, with Bennett first. The government will be a parity government, meaning that there will be equal power and a veto right to the bloc of Lapid - which includes Yesh Atid, Blue and White, Labor and Meretz, and the right-wing bloc of the right and new hope.

According to the outline, blue and white chairman Bnei Gantz will continue to serve as defense minister, Israel Beiteinu chairman Avigdor Lieberman will be finance minister, new hope chairman Gideon Saar justice minister, Labor chairman Merav Michaeli will be transport minister and vice president. Rabbi Meretz Nitzan Horowitz, Minister of Health. In addition, Yisrael Beiteinu is to receive the position of chairman of the Finance Committee, the Negev and Galilee portfolio and another portfolio, and the Labor Party will receive the internal security portfolio for MK Amar Bar-Lev and the Diaspora portfolio, probably for Gilad Karib. In March, MK Tamar Zandberg will serve as Minister of Environmental Protection, and Issawi Frij as Minister of Regional Cooperation.

Blue and White, which has not yet finalized the agreement, is expected to receive, in addition to the defense portfolio, the Ministry of Culture and Sports, Aliyah and Absorption, and another portfolio.

In recent days, Gantz has added a new demand - a veto on issues related to the justice system, which for his part was intended to balance the delivery of the case file to Saar, a right-wing man, and the expected majority on the right in the Judicial Appointments Committee.

Bish Atid agreed to the right-wing demand that three of the four politicians who are members of the committee be from the right, and Merav Michaeli, who accepted the committee in the agreement, will be the only left-wing representative on it.

Even in a new hope they have not yet reached a final agreement.

Apart from the Justice case for Saar, the education file is supposed to be handed over to Yifat Shasha Bitton, and the party is supposed to receive two more files.

It is still unclear what position MK Zeev Elkin will take, who is demanding the position of Speaker of the Knesset.
