European parliamentarians cancel visit to Lebanon due to Israeli absence

A delegation of European parliamentarians appointed to Euro-Med made a last-minute cancellation of their planned visit to Lebanon because no Israeli representative would be present. The decision was made after the Lebanese government rejected the request of Deputy Speaker of the Knesset Majalli Whbee (Kadima) to participate in the planned visit in Lebanon. MK Whbee is serving as the Deputy Chairman of the Euro-Med policy committee.
