Ukraine's prime minister visits Israel seeking to strengthen ties after UN vote
After being disinvited from a scheduled official visit to Israel last December to celebrate the 25th anniversary of the establishment of Ukraine-Israel diplomatic relations, Volodymyr Groysman, the Prime Minister of Ukraine has arrived in Israel with a delegation of ministers for meetings with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to finalize cooperation deals with regard to counter-terrorism, health, and statistical data exchanges.
Groysman met on Monday with President Reuven Rivlin and was scheduled to see Knesset Speaker Yuli Edelstein Agriculture Minister Uri Ariel, members of the business community and the heads of Teva Pharmaceuticals, as well.
Groysman said that his visit was meant to “develop an even better relationship with our friend Israel, and to deepen our strategic partnership.”
