President Isaac Herzog thanks Biden for his “friendship and steadfast support” for Israel throughout his long political career.
“As the first US President to visit Israel in wartime, as a recipient of the Israeli Presidential Medal of Honor, and as a true ally of the Jewish people, he is a symbol of the unbreakable bond between our two peoples,” Herzog writes on X.
“I send him, Jill Biden, and all his family, my warmest wishes from Jerusalem,” he adds.
