以色列“雅沙尔”党领袖加迪·艾森科特周二表示，他感到有必要“尽快”组建紧急政府，此前两天他刚获得组建联合政府的授权。
Israel’s Yashar party leader Gadi Eisenkot said Tuesday that he felt compelled to form an emergency government “as soon as possible,” two days after receiving a mandate to build a coalition.
据《新消息报》报道，艾森科特对新当选的克内塞特（以色列议会）表示，以色列“正处于十字路口”，形容这一时期或许是该国建国以来“最具挑战性”的时刻。
Israel “is at a crossroads,” Eisenkot told the newly elected Knesset, describing the period as perhaps “the most challenging” since the country’s establishment, the daily Yedioth Ahronoth reported.
艾森科特说，他将与合作伙伴共事并联络其他政党，并补充称已邀请部分政党加入。
Eisenkot said he would work with his partners and reach out to other parties, adding that he had already invited some to join.
他还强调对服役军人的承诺，表示将寻求在“不放弃其原则”的前提下组建政府。领导“共同”集团的前总理纳夫塔利·贝内特表示，他正竭尽全力帮助艾森科特迅速组建政府，减轻部署在以色列边境的预备役士兵的负担。
He also stressed his commitment to those serving in the military, saying he would seek to form a government “without abandoning his principles.”Former Prime Minister Naftali Bennett, who leads the Together bloc, said he was doing all he could to help Eisenkot form a government quickly and ease the burden on reservists deployed along Israel’s borders.
“我们已获得在以色列建立良好政府所需的工具。但时间不等人，”贝内特说，并承诺将推行他所谓的“预备役革命”。另有消息称，“以色列我们的家园”党领袖阿维格多·利伯曼对其党派同僚表示，如果当选克内塞特外交与国防委员会主席，他的第一步将是传唤辛贝特（国内安全总局）局长和警察总监，就他所谓的涉嫌外国势力干预选举一事对他们进行质询。
“We have received the necessary tools to establish a good government in Israel. But there is no time,” Bennett said, pledging what he called a “reservists’ revolution.”Separately, Yisrael Beiteinu leader Avigdor Lieberman told his faction that if elected chair of the Knesset’s Foreign Affairs and Defense Committee, his first step would be to summon the head of the Shin Bet domestic security agency and the police commissioner to question them about what he called suspected foreign interference in the elections.
利伯曼说，他原本争取财政委员会主席职位，但同意接受国防委员会主席一职，以免使谈判复杂化。
Lieberman said he had sought the chairmanship of the Finance Committee and had agreed to take the defense committee post to avoid complicating negotiations.
周一，总检察长加利·巴哈拉夫-米亚拉表示，她不知晓任何可能影响选举结果的证据。
On Monday, Attorney General Gali Baharav-Miara said that she was unaware of any evidence that could affect the election results.
总统伊萨克·赫尔佐格周日正式授权艾森科特组建政府，此前有67名议员推荐他，而46名议员支持卸任总理本雅明·内塔尼亚胡。艾森科特有28天时间组建政府，可申请延长14天。
President Isaac Herzog formally tasked Eisenkot with forming a government on Sunday after 67 lawmakers recommended him, compared with 46 who backed outgoing Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. Eisenkot has 28 days to form a government, with a possible 14-day extension.
在10月27日的选举中，无论是艾森科特所属的阵营，还是内塔尼亚胡的盟友，都未能在拥有120个席位的议会中获得多数。由阿拉伯人领导的拉阿姆党和联合名单党共赢得19个席位，两党都在赫尔佐格主持的磋商中推荐了艾森科特。
Neither Eisenkot’s bloc nor Netanyahu’s allies won a majority in the 120-seat Knesset in the Oct. 27 elections. The Arab-led Ra’am and Joint List, which together won 19 seats, both recommended Eisenkot during Herzog’s consultations.
