The Israel Prize laureate stated that her son, MK Elyasaf Peretz of the "Yashar!" party, will resign if his faction forms a coalition with Arab parties.
Israel Prize laureate Miriam Peretz addressed the possibility of political cooperation between the "Yashar!" party, to which her son MK Elyasaf Peretz belongs, and Arab factions. In an interview with Kol Berama radio, Peretz declared that her son would resign his position in the Knesset if the party were to form a government in cooperation with such factions, as reported today (Wednesday) by JDN and the Jerusalem Post.
The statement comes just days after Peretz's son's swearing-in ceremony, an event where his mother emphasized the importance of unity and working for the benefit of all Israeli citizens. Further details regarding the party's position or the MK's response to her remarks have not yet been released.
