Abstract
Naftali Bennett, Israel’s prime minister since June 2021, is leading a national-unity coalition that brings together parties from the far left to the far right. His government has held together longer – and accomplished more – than many initially predicted. This is despite the fact that it took power at a time when Israel was facing serious, and in some cases unprecedented, challenges domestically and internationally. Bennett is focused on implementing overdue, politically controversial domestic reforms and responding to Iran, which is advancing its nuclear programme and attempting to establish a military presence in Syria.
