Attorney Itamar Ben-Gvir, one of the leaders of the Otzma Yehudit (Jewish Power) Party, has congratulated United Right leaders Rafi Peretz and Bezalel Smotrich on being appointed Ministers of Education and Transportation.

Ben-Gvir said, "Although I hoped that my friend Bezalel would receive the justice portfolio - he deserved it, I believe that if in the upcoming elections we get many seats, then the justice portfolio is within reach."
