It will be up to Israeli 大統領 Reuven Rivlin to decide which 候補者 should be given the chance to form a 連立政権 and serve as 首相 - a 仕事 made difficult this time by last week's 十分な説得力のない 議会の 選挙s.

Neither Gantz, the leader of the 中道派（の） Blue and White party, nor Netanyahu, 長，率いる of the 保守的な Likud movement, has a 大多数 in the 120-seat Knesset, or 61 members.
