Netanyahu to depart US for Israel Tuesday after disappointing visit
Lazar Berman is The Times of Israel's diplomatic reporter
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is scheduled to take off from Andrews Air Force Base near Washington, DC for Israel tomorrow at 12 p.m., his office says.
He will be returning after what is seen as a disappointing visit to the White House, during which US President Donald Trump refused to commit to removing tariffs on Israeli imports, and announced direct talks with Iran on its nuclear program.
