Netanyahu: Israel's Cooperation with Arab States Has Never Been Greater
(Jerusalem Post) Herb Keinon - Israel is enjoying a greater level of cooperation today with the Arab world than it has ever had in its history, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said at the Foreign Ministry on Wednesday. There is cooperation in "different ways" and "at different levels," though it is not public. Netanyahu said that the alliance with the U.S. is "stronger than ever" and that - in addition - there are strong ties with Europe, with openings being made in Eastern Europe. "Our return to Africa and the expansion of our technical assistance there is leading to a great deal of interest on the continent," he said. Important breakthroughs were made this past year in China, India and Japan, as well as with Muslim countries in Asia, especially Azerbaijan and Kazakhstan, which he visited in December. Netanyahu will be traveling to Argentina, Colombia and Mexico in Latin America next week before going to the UN General Assembly in New York.
