Netanyahu to Arrive in Baku December 13
The official visit of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to Azerbaijan will begin on December 13 in the morning, Israeli sources told Turan.
The delegation will consist of about 30 people. The Prime Minister will spend only a few hours in Baku and leave for Astana in the evening of the same day after the meeting with Ilham Aliyev. The signing of any document has not been reported.
In Astana, the program is more extensive - two meetings with Nazarbayev (alone and with the participation of delegations), as well as a separate meeting with the Chairman of the Senate Kassym Zhomart Tokayev. The second meeting will be held in the framework of the business forum on 14 December.
To this end, up to 70 businessmen will come from Israel to develop cooperation in the fields of agriculture, medicine, security, and energy. In Kazakhstan, Netanyahu will stay for two days. -02D-
