Kahlon says it’s either Finance Ministry or bust for him

Finance Minister Moshe Kahlon says that if he is not made finance minister after the upcoming elections, he will not take on another position in the government.

“I received proposals to be finance minister from both Gantz and Bibi. I did not accept,” Kahlon says at the IDC Herzliya of the offers he received to join other parties thus far in the lead-up to the election. “I have decided to be the finance minister of the public, who is elected and appointed by virtue of the voters’ trust.”
