Milan, Feb. 7 (LaPresse) – Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu will fly to Washington this week to meet U.S. President Donald Trump on the issue of Iran. This was announced by his office, as reported by the Times of Israel. The meeting will take place on Wednesday. “The Prime Minister believes that any negotiation must include restrictions on ballistic missiles and an end to support for the Iranian axis,” Netanyahu’s office said. Initially, the Israeli prime minister’s trip to the United States was scheduled from February 18 to 22. A White House official told Axios journalist Barak Ravid that it was Netanyahu who asked to visit the White House a week earlier than planned and to meet President Trump on Wednesday.
