US looking forward to engaging new Israeli govt; supports normalisation of Arab-Israel relations: White House

 

Washington : The United States is looking forward to working with the new Israeli government, the Biden administration said and asserted that it supports the normalisation of Arab-Israel relations.

Benjamin Netanyahu’s Likud party and its far-right and religious allies secured an emphatic victory in the general elections in the Jewish nation last year defeating Yair Lapid. This is Netanyahu’s sixth stint as prime minister.

“We really do look forward to engaging the Israeli government. I will be going to Israel, and that will be a substantial topic of conversation when I go,” US National Security Advisor Jake Sullivan told reporters in New Mexico.
