Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is unlikely to fly to Washington for Donald Trump’s January 20 inauguration as US president, a senior aide tells The Times of Israel.
Netanyahu had been expected to make the trip, Israeli officials said in recent weeks, but barring any last minute changes, won’t do so.
No invitation has been received by the Prime Minister’s Office.
