Enter the government?

Some people think that whoever is currently at the helm of government, given the question of the lives of the hostages and his own political interests, will not prioritize his political interests over the lives of the hostages. But some people think that he will prioritize his political interests, even at the expense of the lives of the hostages, and he has plenty of evidence to support his view.

Is it right for him to enter the government to give him support so that he won’t lose politically in the immediate term, thus allowing the lives of the hostages to be saved (assuming that this will be the case and that this is not another round of bluffing) or is Dalma such a bad and dangerous personality for the entire war and the management of the people that he should not be given a lifeline, even for a limited time, because the damage and disasters he has caused and will cause each time are surprising and bad again?
