The swearing-in of the unity government has been postponed to Thursday, due to the upcoming visit of US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo this week.
Last Friday, the US State Department confirmed that Secretary of State Mike Pompeo will be traveling to Israel on May 13 and will be meeting with Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu and Speaker of the Knesset Benny Gantz in Jerusalem, “to discuss US and Israeli efforts to fight the COVID-19 pandemic, as well as regional security issues related to Iran’s malign influence.”
The government had been set to be sworn in on Wednesday.
