Netanyahu speaks with Kerry about Abbas

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu says he just spoke on the phone with US Secretary of State John Kerry, who updated him on his recent meeting with Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas in Paris. Netanyahu refuses to provide any detail about their conversations.

The prime minister says he plans another trip to Africa soon, this time to West Africa.

He also says he’s “very careful” not to get involved, in any way in the US elections.

He says he’s “happy to work with whomever gets elected.” Netanyahu will be traveling to New York for the UN General Assembly in the fall, but there are no immediate plans for him to meet with US President Barack Obama.
