Netanyahu, Pompeo to Discuss Regional, Int’l Issues From December 4-5 in Lisbon - Reports
09:05 GMT 04.12.2019 (Updated: 12:52 GMT 06.08.2022) JERUSALEM (Sputnik) – Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu will meet with US State Secretary Mike Pompeo and his Portuguese counterpart, Antonio Costa, in Portugal’s capital of Lisbon from December 4-5 to discuss regional and international issues, media reported.
Netanyahu will leave on Wednesday morning for Lisbon to meet with Pompeo in the evening, and will return to Israel on Thursday, Israel’s Channel 13 reported.
According to the broadcaster, Netanyahu will also hold negotiations with Costa during his visit.
The meeting comes after Netanyahu had a phone call with US President Donald Trump on Sunday evening, during which the two leaders talked about the "threat from Iran" and Israel's plans to extend sovereignty over the Jordan Valley.
On 18 November, Pompeo said that the United States no longer considered the Israeli settlements being built on Palestinian territory to be illegal, a statement that went against decades of US policy and international understanding on the matter.
Over the past two years, the US has made a number of gestures toward Israel that previous presidents refused to make, including recognising Jerusalem as the capital of Israel and the annexed Golan Heights as sovereign Israeli territory.
