Today, I leave for Washington to stand alongside an American president, who is offering a plan, which I believe will advance our vital interests. I am going to meet with President Trump tomorrow. On Tuesday, together with him, we will make history.
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, today (Sunday, 26 January 2020), made the following remarks at Ben-Gurion International Airport prior to his departure for Washington :
"Five years ago, I went to the Congress in Washington because I was compelled to stand up against a plan brought by an American president, because I believed such a plan would endanger the vital interests of the State of Israel and its very existence.
