According to a senior Ra'am official, party members have yet to decide whether party head Mansour Abbas will hold a press conference to issue a statement on the matter.
Outside of an interview with the Anadolu Agency, in which the Turkish news agency referred to the Ra'am party leader as the "first Arab kingmaker in Israel's history," the party has imposed an interview ban.
"Our options are open, and we are engaged in negotiations with the Right and the Left," Abbas told the agency, in the interview published Wednesday.
He reiterated his desire to work with a prime minister that meets the Arab sector's needs.
"We won't allow a return to the rejection of the Arab community to the margins of society. There is the issue of our people in the Negev, with 100,000 people who live without development and recognized lands," Abbas said.
