PM announces UK trip to mark Balfour Declaration centenary
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu announces plans to travel to London next month to celebrate the Balfour Declaration’s centennial on November 2, exactly 100 years to the day from when the United Kingdom’s Foreign Secretary Arthur Balfour wrote to Lord Walter Rothschild declaring support for “the establishment in Palestine of a national home for the Jewish people.”
During his four-day trip to the British capital, Netanyahu will meet with Prime Minister Theresa May and other top UK officials, according to a statement from the Prime Minister’s Office.
