According to the source, MBZ couldn't believe the Israeli prime minister thought he would be willing to pay for a problem that was created due to Israel's decision not to allow the workers in.
MBZ told Netanyahu he couldn't do it, and then sarcastically suggested the Israeli prime minister turn to Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky instead, the Israeli official and source with knowledge said. MBZ said Zelensky gets a lot of money from many countries so maybe he would be able to help him, according to the sources.
God, can you imagine if every country just did sensible lockdowns and sent the US the bill for temporary unemployment due to it being the dedicated Covid petri dish?
