MK Shelly Yachimovich attacked the joint announcement made Tuesday evening by Minister of Finance Kahlon (Kulanu) and Histadrut chairman Nissan Korn on the agreement that prevented the strike in the economy.

"Kahlon and Nissan Korn's announcement was baseless and was staged from start to finish." No one believed for a moment that the economy was bad and that Korn was out against his political partner, Yachimovich said.

"The Histadrut has entire sections that are rich in means and money to deal with the safety of workers, and it does not lift a finger in itself, shameful that the poorest workers, who pay with their lives, brutally served as a means of a public relations week."
