The White House announced Friday that National Security Advisor Tom Donilon will travel to Israel from February 18-20 for consultations with senior Israeli officials about a range of issues, including Iran, Syria, and other regional security issues.
“Donilon’s travel is the latest in a series of regular, high-level consultations between the United States and Israel, consistent with our strong bilateral partnership, and part of our unshakeable commitment to Israel’s security,” read the official White House press statement.
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is scheduled to visit the US in March to take part in meetings with US president Barack Obama and attend the annual conference of the pro-Israel lobby AIPAC.
Foreign Minister Avigdor Lieberman traveled to Washington Monday, where he met with his American counterpart, Hillary Clinton as well as speaker of the House of Representatives, John Boehner; the chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, John Kerry; and the chairwoman of the House Foreign Affairs Committee, Ileana Ros-Lehtinen.
Help us report truthfully on social media
As a multimedia journalist, my job is to take the quality, fact-based journalism produced by The Times of Israel newsroom and make it accessible across every platform — from Instagram posts to podcasts to short-form videos.
This is how many, especially young people, consume news these days. But misinformation is rampant on social media. Our team at ToI produces accurate, responsible short-form reporting on Israel and the Jewish world.
If you believe in the importance of factual social media journalism, please consider joining our reader support group, The Times of Israel Community. Your financial support is essential to sustain responsible multimedia reporting.
