Ra’am chairman Mansour Abbas revealed Wednesday that efforts are underway to establish cooperation between his party and the Chareidi parties, Shas and United Torah Judaism, as negotiations continue over the formation of Israel’s next government. Speaking in an interview with Radio A-Shams, Abbas said the arrangement currently being explored would involve cooperation between Ra’am and the Chareidi parties, with additional parliamentary support from the Joint List. “The path currently being worked on is cooperation between the Chareidi parties and Ra’am, with a safety net from the Joint List,” Abbas said.
