Livni’s camp had no immediate comment. Yisrael Katz of Netanyahu’s Likud denied the report, but told Israel Radio Likud was interested in Kadima joining a coalition led by Netanyahu.
“Factually the situation is very clear, only Netanyahu can put together a majority coalition,” Katz said.
Outgoing Deputy PM Hain Ramon of Kadima told Army Radio: “We won’t join any extremist Right-wing Government.”
