BRITISH AND GERMAN LEADERS MEET WITH LEADERS OF ISRAEL ON THEIR WAY TO THE G7 MEETINGS
British Foreign Secretary David Cameron along with and Germany’s Foreign Minister Annalena Baerbock dropped by Israel on route to the G7 meetings early Wednesday. The leaders had separate meetings with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamine Netanyahu but the topic was the same discussions on what actions Israel could pursue to retaliate for Iran’s unprecedented, direct attack on Israel over the weekend.
After the leaders left the prime minister had a very clear message “Israel will do whatever it needs to defend itself,” Netanyahu said in a statement. “They have all sorts of suggestions and advice. I appreciate that. But I want to be clear: Our decisions we will make ourselves,” the prime minister added.
