President Reuven Rivlin is set to depart for the United States, where he’ll meet with US President Joe Biden, senior members of Congress, and visit the United Nations, in his final foreign visit as head of state.
Rivlin will land in New York on Sunday, where he will hold a meeting with executives of major Jewish organizations in Manhattan along with Israel’s Ambassador to the US and UN Gilad Erdan.
On Monday morning, he will depart for Washington, where he will meet with Biden in the Oval Office. He will then head to Capitol Hill for a meeting with Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi, along with other Congressional leaders from both parties.
Rivlin will then return to New York for meetings at the UN with Secretary General Antonio Guterres and several foreign ambassadors.
Help us report truthfully on social media
As a multimedia journalist, my job is to take the quality, fact-based journalism produced by The Times of Israel newsroom and make it accessible across every platform — from Instagram posts to podcasts to short-form videos.
This is how many, especially young people, consume news these days. But misinformation is rampant on social media. Our team at ToI produces accurate, responsible short-form reporting on Israel and the Jewish world.
If you believe in the importance of factual social media journalism, please consider joining our reader support group, The Times of Israel Community. Your financial support is essential to sustain responsible multimedia reporting.
