Netanyahu lauds Romanian PM for embassy announcement
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu praises his Romanian counterpart Viorica Dăncilă, who announced earlier today at the AIPAC policy conference that her country would move its embassy to Jerusalem.
I congratulate my friend, the Prime Minister of Romania, Viorica Dancila, on her announcement at AIPAC that she would act to complete the procedures needed to open the Romanian embassy in Jerusalem. 🇮🇱🇷🇴

Any such decision would require the approval of the president of Romania, who has spoken out against such a move.
