Seedling planted by Obama taken for examination
None
The seedling brought to Israel by US President Barack Obama from Washington as gift to the presidential garden in the President's Residence has been dislodged and taken for examination at the Agriculture Ministry.
"Obama has brought a sapling with him; it will undergo examination because the entrance of foreign plants is forbidden without such an examination." The sapling was planted by the US President together with his Israeli counterpart. (Shahar Chai)
