PM meets Indian FM Sushma Swaraj

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu meets Indian External Affairs Minister Sushma Swaraj. They discuss bilateral cooperation on a broad range of issues, as well as increasing cooperation via the business sector in both countries, and not only by means of the two governments.

Netanyahu says that Israel wants maximum cooperation with India, in all areas. Swaraj raises the possibility of increasing the number of Indian students in Israeli institutions of higher education.

Netanyahu and Swaraj jointly view a video clip on Palestinian incitement, which was sent to European foreign ministers. The PM says that the video explained today’s and yesterday’s stabbings of the two mothers. Swaraj expresses her condolences and condemns both attacks.
