Shas leader Eli Yishai reiterated on Friday morning that his party is not ruling out the possibility of sitting in a broad-based coalition government with any party, including Yisrael Beitenu.

Yishai stated that Shas was in the outgoing government with Yisrael Beitenu, and would be willing to do so again, providing the parties exhibit a willingness to conform to acceptable coalition guidelines and accept a “religious status quo”.
