Labor chair Merav Michaeli is in Washington where she met yesterday with Democratic Senator Jon Ossoff.
The two discussed “US-Israel alliance, regional security in the Middle East, and relations between Israelis and Palestinians” with the two “affirming their mutual concern for peace, freedom and stability in the Middle East,” according to a statement from Ossoff’s office, which recycles old talking points and does not divulge any substantive details about the meeting.
Ossoff has been one of the more engaged senators on the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, teaming up with lawmakers from across the aisle for several initiatives and meeting with senior Israeli and Palestinian officials.
