Israel’s prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu has warned the country may face early elections due to a coalition crisis.
Speaking at the Economic Club in Washington, Mr Netanyahu said he wants his government to complete its term in November 2019.
He said: “If all parties in this coalition … agree that’s what we do, and if not then we will go to elections now.”
Coalition partners are feuding over whether to include military draft exemptions for ultra-Orthodox Jews.
Mr Netanyahu also made light of the corruption investigations against him back home.
When asked what the pleasure of his job is, Mr Netanyahu jokingly replied: “investigations.”
