Finance minister: We haven’t lost control of economy, no need for protest

Finance Minister Israel Katz is asked about this evening’s protest in Tel Aviv during an interview with Channel 13 news.

“The demonstrators don’t have a reason to protest, we haven’t lost control over what’s happening in the economy,” he says.

Concerning complaints that promised government aid has been slow to arrive, Katz says, “the money will reach the bank on Tuesday and you’ll see this in your account on Wednesday.”
