WASHINGTON (JTA) — Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and U.S. President Donald Trump will meet at the economic summit in Davos, Switzerland.
An email from the Israeli government office said the leaders would meet Thursday.
Davos each year hosts the World Economic Forum, where leaders discuss economic policy.
Netanyahu and Trump have formed a close relationship, coordinating policy on confronting Iran and on Israeli-Arab peacemaking.
