Netanyahu says he will travel to Washington to meet Trump, comments on ICC prosecutor issue

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said at the opening of a cabinet meeting that he will leave for Washington tomorrow to meet U.S. President Donald Trump at Trump’s invitation, according to Israel’s i24 News, as cited by BlockBeats on July 26. Netanyahu said the two will discuss the full agenda currently facing them, including the situation involving Iran. He also said he will attend a memorial ceremony for Senator Lindsey Graham, whom he described as “a great friend of Israel.” Netanyahu also addressed the International Criminal Court’s move to remove its chief prosecutor, Karim Khan, from office. He said the vote exposed the fact that Khan was not only accused of sexually harassing several female subordinates, but had also pushed for arrest warrants against Netanyahu and former Defense Minister Yoav Gallant. Netanyahu said Khan had acted in order to divert attention, unite Israel’s enemies around him, and create a shield for himself. Netanyahu added that he had also spoken with Secretary of State Rubio, who, according to Netanyahu, said the United States intends to take strong action against the ICC.
