Carnegie Connects: What Will the New Israeli Change Coalition Actually Change?

Mon. June 14th, 2021

Live Online

If the inauguration of a new Israeli government—the first in over a decade without Benjamin Netanyahu—takes place this Sunday, it raises a series of questions that bear consequentially on the politics of Israel, the conflict with Palestinians, relations with key Arab states, and the Iran nuclear accord. What will the new coalition government, comprised of eight parties across the political spectrum but led by a new, right-wing prime minister, mean for the future of Israel? How will this new government address heightened tension with Palestinians following the most recent Israeli-Palestinian confrontation in Jerusalem and Gaza? And what does the new coalition portend for relations with the Biden administration, U.S. Congress, and the American Jewish community?

Join us as Anshel Pfeffer, Natan Sachs, and Tal Schneider sit down with Aaron David Miller to discuss these and other issues.
