The unexpectedly long Obama-Netanyahu meeting in Jerusalem this afternoon dealt with “regional strategic issues,” Channel 2 diplomatic correspondent Udi Segal says.
That meant primarily a discussion of Israeli security demands in a future agreement with the Palestinians, he says, such as Israel’s demand for a security presence in the Jordan Valley after any withdrawal.
