Two days before the elections for the Knesset, Religious Zionism chairman MK Bezalel Smotrich visited the Israel National News studio on Sunday to discuss the upcoming election, the infighting on the right, and more.

On Sunday, opposition head and Likud chairman MK Benjamin Netanyahu stated that votes for Ben-Gvir at the Likud's expense are votes for Yair Lapid. Smotrich says that he finds the statement hurtful. "This infighting is a mistake. We need to join hands as we've done over the past year and a half, and bring 61 seats so we can form a right-wing government. Netanyahu and the public know that what matters isn't the size of the ruling party, but the size of the bloc. The president gives the mandate to whoever has enough recommendations," says Smotrich.
