Netanyahu meets with Biden despite Biden’s withdrawal from the race for another term. Before leaving, Israel’s head of government names the points he wants to address at the meeting.
Before leaving for the USA, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu stressed the strength of the alliance between the two countries. He will seek the support of both political camps in the USA, said the head of government. “I will tell my friends on both sides that regardless of who the American people choose as their next president, Israel remains America’s indispensable and strong ally in the Middle East.”
He will deliver a speech to Congress on Wednesday, “at a time when Israel is fighting on seven fronts and there is great political uncertainty in Washington,” Netanyahu added.
Despite Biden’s withdrawal from the race for another term, Netanyahu will meet the US president on Tuesday. “This will be an opportunity to thank him for the things he did for Israel in the war and during his long and distinguished career of public service, as a senator, as vice president and as president.”
He also wants to talk to Biden about “how we can advance the goals that are important to both our countries in the critical months ahead: achieving the release of all our hostages, defeating Hamas, confronting the terrorist axis of Iran and its accomplices, and ensuring the safe return of all Israeli citizens to their homes in the north and south.”
Netanyahu concluded: “In this time of war and uncertainty, it is important that Israel’s enemies know that America and Israel stand together – today, tomorrow and always.”
