Prime Minister Naftali Bennett and US President Joe Biden’s private White House meeting has extended past the 25 minutes originally allotted.
After the one-on-one sit down, the two will give brief remarks to the press and answer several questions before the sides will hold an expanded working meeting with their aides.
On the US side, Biden will be joined by National Security Advisor Jake Sullivan, US ambassador to the UN Linda Thomas-Greenfield, NSC Coordinator for the Middle East and North Africa Brett McGuirk, Chargé d’Affaires for the US Embassy in Israel Michael Ratney, and Assistant Secretary of State for Near Eastern Affairs Barbara Leaf.
Bennett will be joined by his National Security Advisor Eyal Haluta, Cabinet Secretary Shalom Shlomo, Chief of Staff Tal Gan Tzvi, Military Secretary Gen, Avi Gil, envoy to the US and UN Gilad Erdan, and foreign policy adviser Shimrit Meir.
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.
