MK Betzalel Smotrich attacked Transportation Minister Miri Regev in the Knesset plenum, who replaced him in the position: "Regev is trying to make quarrels between residents of the center and Tel Aviv and residents of the periphery - she's talking baseless nonsense."
MK Smotrich recounted a meeting they had when she took over as Minister of Transport: "I said 'In the Transportation Ministry you're measured by indices. In the Culture Ministry you go in, fight with the Leftists, you get applause, yay." In addition, he accused her: "There's no good thing that you didn't burn in this Ministry. "
Regev replied: "Smotrich did terrible things for transportation and was a tool of the officials, he abandoned the periphery and the Judea and Samaria area."
