Kulanu, which translates to "All of Us" in Hebrew, is a centrist political party in Israel. Founded in 2014 by Moshe Kahlon, a former member of the Likud party, Kulanu emerged from a desire to address what Kahlon and his followers saw as the pressing… socio-economic issues facing the Israeli middle class. The party positioned itself as a champion of economic reforms, focusing on reducing the cost of living, improving housing affordability, and reforming the banking and financial systems to be more inclusive and fair for the average Israeli.<br /><br />Kulanu's values are rooted in a centrist and pragmatic approach to politics, aiming to bridge the gap between Israel's left and right. While it places a strong emphasis on social and economic issues, the party also advocates for moderate policies in other areas, including education, healthcare, and the environment. Kulanu supports a two-state solution to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, reflecting its centrist stance on security and peace issues, although it tends to prioritize domestic socio-economic reforms over engaging deeply in the peace process negotiations.<br /><br />The party's appeal to a broad spectrum of Israeli society is based on its commitment to social justice, economic opportunity, and a fairer distribution of resources. By focusing on the needs of the middle class and proposing practical solutions to everyday problems, Kulanu seeks to ensure that all Israelis can share in the country's prosperity. Despite its relatively short history, Kulanu has played a significant role in Israeli politics, particularly through its influence on economic policy and its efforts to address the concerns of ordinary citizens.続きを読む
