Gantz Holds First Meeting With U.S. Ambassador Nides
Defense Minister Benny Gantz met with the new U.S. Ambassador to Israel Tom Nides in his office in Tel Aviv on Wednesday ahead of his departure to the U.S. for talks on the Iran nuclear program. It was the first official meeting between the two.
Gantz will be joining Mossad chief David Barnea who is already in Washington for talks with his American counterparts on the Iran deal.
