MK Galit Distel-Atbarian photo of the minister without a portfolio in the Prime Minister’s office, ahead of the swearing in of the right-wing government today (Thursday) in the Knesset.
Earlier, as I recall, Likud announced the appointment of MK Nir Barkat as Minister of the Economy and MK Amichai Shikli as Minister of the Diaspora.
Later today it will be decided on the next foreign minister of the State of Israel – Eli Cohen or Israel Katz.
Distel wrote on her Twitter account: “I thank Netanyahu for the great trust, for the opportunity to work with him shoulder to shoulder, for the responsibility in implementing government policy and above all – for the sacred right to serve the citizens of Israel. The sleeves are already rolled up. Let’s go to work.’
