Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Secretary of State Mike Pompeo wrapped up a three-hour meeting in Jerusalem this morning, the day before the swearing-in of Israel’s new government. Greeting Pompeo upon his arrival, Netanyahu set the tone by introducing three main topics on the agenda: the global battle against the novel coronavirus, the Iranian threat and President Donald Trump’s proposed peace plan.
"The first thing is the plague. … The second thing is that there’s something else plaguing our region, which is unremitting Iranian aggression and terror. … The third point is that now we’re about to form a national unity government, tomorrow, I am — I think that this is an opportunity to promote peace and security based on the understandings that I reached with President Trump in my last visit in Washington, in January," said Netanyahu.
