US Ambassador to Israel Tom Nides meets United Torah Judaism party leader Yitzhak Goldknopf in the latter’s office in the Knesset, Goldknopf’s office says.
The statement says Nides updated the likely incoming housing minister about talks on a visa waiver agreement between the countries, while Goldknopf updated the envoy on coalition negotiations.
Goldknopf also invited Nides to take part in a Hanukkah candle-lighting event next week with his Gur Hasidic sect, and Nides accepted, the statement adds.
