Balad leader condemns exclusion of Arab parties as racist after Israeli elections
Israel's elections have produced no clear winner, while the opposition bloc refuses to ally with Arab parties. The leader of the Arab party Balad calls this exclusion racist.
Elections in Israel have not produced a clear winner, and the opposition bloc has said it will not form an alliance with Arab parties. This complicates the search for the agreements needed to form a government.
The leader of Balad, an Arab party, has described the exclusion as racist. The possible role of Arab parties in shaping the next government has therefore become one of the points of dispute after the vote.
The source material is available only in a very brief form, so the election results, seat distribution, the names of the politicians involved and the next steps are not described here.
