Biden and Bibi. (Photo: Miriam Alster/Flash90)
A White House source told Kann News that President Biden will meet with Prime Minister Netanyahu during his visit to Washington, DC.
Netanyahu is visiting the American capital to give a speech to Congress, and this is likely to be one of the topics of conversation. Democratic Congressman Jake Auchincloss even proposed a walkout by members of his party if he criticizes the Biden administration directly.
This announcement also comes against the background of increasing efforts to get Biden to leave the race for reelection after a debate performance last week that led many to question his ability to do the job. The White House is effectively trying to signal "business as usual" with this announcement.
