Cabinet Moshe Sharet I.
The Cabinet of Moshe Sharet I ( Hebrew ממשלת ישראל החמישית) is the third coalition government during the Second Legislature of the Knesset , which was formed by Moshe Sharet on January 26, 1954. It is the first government since the Israeli declaration of independence without David Ben-Gurion as prime minister . The formation of a new government became necessary because David Ben-Gurion resigned from his post as Prime Minister of the Fourth Cabinet .
Like the previous government, the coalition government consisted of members of the parties: Mifleget Poalei Eretz Israel , HaPo'el haMisrachi , Spiritual Center , General Zionists , Progressive Party and the three parties representing the Arab Israelis : Reshima Demokratit LeAravei Yisrael , Kidma VeAvoda and Hakla'ut VePituah .
After the resignation of Pinchas Lawon in the course of the Lawon affair on February 21, 1955, David Ben-Gurion took over the office of defense minister .
