Biden, Netanyahu strike cordial tone after months of U.S.-Israeli tensions
(Worthy News) – President Biden told Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on Wednesday that he plans to welcome him in Washington by December, a move designed to ease tensions over a perceived snub of the right-wing leader who has had an uneasy relationship with the current U.S. administration.
The meeting of the leaders of the two longtime allies has been closely watched, given U.S. criticisms of the conservative Netanyahu government’s policy on such issues as judicial reform and its relations with the Palestinians.
