The Prime Minister added the words of Coalition Chairman Mickey Zohar, who wrote: "Unfortunately, Blue and White distorted my words again. I spoke about political considerations because of which Blue and White continues to have a government within the government."
As you may recall, yesterday MK Zohar said in an interview with Channel 20 that "there are also political considerations" in delaying the approval of the budget.
In response, Deputy Prime Minister and Defense Minister Benny Gantz posted a tweet on his Twitter account, calling for immediate budget approval: "Prime Minister, if you really want to work for the citizens of Israel - prove it. Bring a state budget. "You have been sticking it out properly for 4 months. Then and only then can we work for the citizens of Israel."
Prime Minister,
if you really want to work for the citizens of Israel - prove it.
Bring a state budget, it is possible to appoint senior officials to key positions that will promote Israel in a proper and clean procedure that you have been pushing for for 4 months.
Only then can we work for the citizens of Israel.
And now wholeheartedly,
congratulations on your birthday.

At the end of the tweet, the Minister of Defense congratulated the Prime Minister on the occasion of his 71st birthday, which falls today: "And now from the bottom of my heart, congratulations on your birthday."
