Tensions among senior Likud officials are running high as it appears there are only a handful of ministerial appointments remaining after the coalition signed on a number of parties, Yisrael Beitenu, Shas, Labor, and Bayit HaYehudi.
Veteran Likud MK Michael Eitan on Sunday expressed confidence that one of these appointments will go to him. “I do not know which portfolio I will receive but I am quite certain I will receive something” he commented in a Galei Tzahal (Army Radio) interview.
Eitan stated it is only natural to see his colleagues all vying for the ministerial appointments, adding if Likud has 10 posts, he does not envision a situation in which he will not receive a ministerial post.
