Bank of Israel governor: Imperative to pass 2021 budget as soon as possible
Bank of Israel Governor Amir Yaron says it is imperative to pass a budget for 2021 “as soon as possible.”
Speaking to the Knesset’s Finance Committee, Yaron says “the problem of uncertainty in Israel is critical.”
The prime minister and his Likud party have insisted that the 2021 budget be delayed due to the uncertainty caused by the coronavirus pandemic. Critics say this is a stalling tactic as the premier seeks to use the budget next year to maneuver toward new elections.
