Aged 54, a former prime minister and former member of special forces, he has worked closely with Netanyahu for many years. A millionaire, he is active in the high-tech sector. Together with Yair Lapid, he has founded a new party (for which he is the candidate): ‘Insieme’ (Together), which promises to heal a traumatised nation and put the country back on the right track. Their alliance seeks to reconcile positions that are often diametrically opposed, but it already has a success to its name, having managed to oust Netanyahu from government in the 2021 elections.
