Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said, "Israel's message during the visit to the US will be sharp and clear. Our policy on Jerusalem is like the policy in the last 42 years. We clarified to the Americans that, from our perspective, building there is like building in Tel Aviv."
The prime minister said at the start of the weekly cabinet meeting that he will speak with in the US about the Iranian issue. He noted in regards to negotiations with the Palestinians that "we will be able to raise any issue for negotiation, and emphasized we will be able to do this better in direct negotiations. Only if we sit this way and speak will we be able to come to real negotiations." (Roni Sofer)
