Ben-Gvir welcomed Golan's addition, highlighting his "extensive experience" and "proven abilities in leading winning campaigns." This strategic alliance aims to strengthen the party's influence and advance its messages with determination and professionalism, reflecting a concerted effort to consolidate the national camp's political power.
