Is Professor Gabi Barbash on his way to the Knesset? Maariv learned today (Sunday) that advanced contacts are being made between the former director general of the Ministry of Health and the right-wing party ahead of his addition to Barbash’s list.
Bennett criticized the prime minister’s remarks
Earlier this month, Prof. Barbash spoke with Ben Caspit and Winon Magal about their program on 103FM and attacked the Israeli government over its decisions to enter the third closure, which he said was not tight enough. “It was an unnecessary closure. It is very watchful, and everyone will draw their own conclusions about how the government conducts itself in front of the ultra-Orthodox, but we should not look at what is happening to them. It should not affect the people of Israel who need to go into quarantine in order to reduce our morbidity, “Barbash said.
As mentioned, Barbash’s contacts with the right-wing party are at an advanced stage, and it is possible that the former director general of the Ministry of Health will connect with Naftali Bennett, who in recent months has often attacked the government and leader Benjamin Netanyahu for their conduct during the Corona crisis. For example, Bennett last month attacked the government’s conduct and said that “it is a pity that the plague is not called Naftali Bennett, that way I was sure that someone in the government would have fought the virus.”
