The meeting between Netanyahu and Minister Tamano Sheta lasted an hour and a half. An investigation by News 12 indicates that Tamano Sheta was summoned by the Prime Minister from now on to provide an overview of her ministry's preparations for the spread of the coronavirus and the state of immigration to the country. Blue and White see this meeting as an attempt by Netanyahu to examine the possibility that Tamano Sheta will defect to a narrow government headed by Netanyahu, should the unity government fall apart. Minister Tamano Sheta denied it: "Anyone who is looking for her to do this and join a narrow government is wasting their time." In a response published by the minister, it was stated: "On Thursday, a meeting was held between Prime Minister Netanyahu and I. The meeting was purely professional about the ministry's assessments during the coronavirus period, and in anticipation of the expected waves of immigration. The meeting took place with Benny Gantz's knowledge, any other speculation does not exist. I will not give my hand to a narrow government. The only thing that needs to be done now is to pass a budget for 2020-2021." Channel 13 reported that Netanyahu also met with Minister Omer Yankelevich of Blue and White. In response, Yankelevich issued a clarification: "No personal meeting was held between me and the Prime Minister. I participated in a meeting that was held alongside professional figures, the National Security Council, and the Corona headquarters on the subject of ministry plans for the Corona period. "Minister of Defense and Alternate Prime Minister Benny Gantz - was informed in advance about the meeting. Enough with the attempts to create spin from routine work in a government ministry.".
