President Isaac Herzog met with the President of the UN General Assembly, Annalena Baerbock, ahead of his participation in the World Economic Forum in Davos, and clarified that he intends to raise the issue of excluding Israeli officials from international forums and canceling the sanctions imposed by the International Criminal Court. "It is unacceptable that shameful politics are exploited by international legal forums to prevent senior officials from the only democracy in the Middle East from participating," he said. "Preventing Prime Minister Netanyahu's participation in a global forum that aspires to shape the future of the Middle East through such legal means - is a prize for terror."
