The final results of the Israeli election were only declared last Friday. The consultation process for coalition building has only begun, and it may be some weeks before the new Government is formed. As had been widely predicted, a coalition similar to the outgoing Government seems the most likely outcome. I have not yet discussed the results with EU colleagues.
