President Reuven Rivlin is set to meet with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Blue and White leader Benny Gantz at 6:30 p.m. to announce which of them will form the next government.

After completing his consultations with all nine political factions represented in the incoming Knesset, which is set be inaugurated next week, President Reuven Rivlin emerged to thank the media for its attendance, but explained that he still had not finished the process for giving a mandate to one of the two main candidates, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu or Blue and White leader Benny Gantz.

For this reason, he refused to answer questions before meeting with Netanyahu and Gantz on Monday night, saying that whatever answer he gave to any question would provoke another question.

Relating to the fact that the consultations had been live-streamed so that all of Israel would be privy to them in real time, Rivlin said that he was happy to be able to do this in matters affecting the nation as a whole.
