US Secretary of State Marco Rubio began his visit to Israel on Sunday by praying at the Western Wall with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and US Ambassador Mike Huckabee.
The trip follows Israel’s strike in Doha last week that killed Hamas officials and a Qatari security officer—its first such attack on US ally Qatar.
The strike drew condemnation abroad, and prompted President Donald Trump to express dissatisfaction, though he stressed it would not alter Washington’s ties with Israel.
Rubio said the incident’s impact on truce efforts would be discussed in meetings with Israeli leaders on Monday.
Foreign ministers of Arab and Muslim countries began a preparatory meeting in Doha on Sunday ahead of an emergency summit of the leaders of these countries to develop a unified position in connection with Israel's strikes on Qatar.
Rubio und Netanjahu beten an Klagemauer
ReplyDeleteWenige Tage nach dem israelischen Angriff auf Katar ist US-Außenminister Marco Rubio nach Israel gereist. Die USA seien zwar "nicht glücklich" über den Angriff auf einen US-Verbündeten, jedoch würde dies die Beziehungen zu Israel nicht beeinträchtigen. Am Sonntag besuchte Rubio gemeinsam mit dem israelischen Premier Benjamin Netanjahu die Klagemauer in Jerusalem.
