Summary

Netanyahu did not take his defeat lightly, promising Israel's enemies that the Likud party would return to power in his final speech as prime minister.“If it is destined for us to be in the opposition, we will do it with our backs straight until we topple this dangerous government and return to lead the country in our way,” he said.U.S. President Joe Biden congratulated Bennett in a statement Sunday, saying he was looking forward to working with Bennett's new government "to advance security, stability, and peace for Israelis, Palestinians, and people throughout the broader region.""Israel has no better friend than the United States," Biden said. Biden will now have to work with Bennett, who is opposed to a two-state solution to the conflict.After so many years in office, Netanyahu leaves a long and wide-ranging legacy.“His self-image is someone that’s a leader on the world stage, a protector of Israel from Iranian nuclear capability, an advocate of Israeli high-tech industry and someone who is Israel’s campaigner par excellence,” Makovsky said.However, he has also helped contribute to a contentious political environment, according to Plesner.While the formation of a new “change government” has brought Netanyahu’s premiership to an end for now, it’s too early to rule him out for good.
