Netanyahu cancels UN trip, forgoes meeting with Trump after failing to secure an outright victory in national elections


(Worthy News) – Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu canceled his trip to New York City for the United Nations’ annual General Assembly next week after falling short of securing a parliamentary majority in Israel’s second general election in five months, his office announced Wednesday.

Netanyahu, 69, the longest-serving leader in Israeli history, was seeking a fifth term in office, but faced a stiff challenge from Benny Gantz’s centrist Blue and White party.

Netanyahu’s office said Wednesday he will not be attending this year’s U. N. General Assembly (UNGA), an event he ordinarily uses to advance Israeli interests on the world stage, because of current “political circumstances,” but did not elaborate, The Times of Israel reported.
