Deri seeks agriculture, welfare portfolios from Netanyahu
Add ToI as a Preferred Source on GoogleShas leader Aryeh Deri asks Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to appoint members of his party as ministers of agriculture and welfare, two portfolios currently held by the prime minister.
Netanyahu is expected to relinquish his ministerial portfolios — which also include health and diaspora affairs — due to the criminal charges against him.
