Arutz Sheva – Foreign Minister Avigdor Lieberman, head of the Yisrael Beytenu party, declared on Monday that he would not agree to any changes in the make-up of the current coalition, even if that means holding elections.
Lieberman’s declaration, made during a Yisrael Beytenu toast in honor of Rosh Hashanah, came amid tensions between Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu and Finance Minister Yair Lapid over the state budget for 2015.
