    'Likud is punishing the nation'

    The Blue and White party has embarked on an Internet campaign against the Likud and the prime minister over delaying passage of a budget for 2021, claiming that "Likud is punishing the nation."

    Minister of Diaspora Affairs Omer Yankeleivich (Blue and White) delivered the following message via Twitter:

    '"Investments and philanthropy from abroad are frozen. The strategic connection and trust between Diaspora Jewry and the State of Israel could be damaged," Yankeleivich wrote.

    "We need to pass a budget now. We demand a functioning government," she added.
