Netanyahu heads to Paris for marathon meetings with world leaders

  • 9 years ago
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu took off to Paris early Monday for a marathon of sit-downs with world leaders at a climate conference.
The focus of Netanyahu's one-day trip will be his high-profile meetings with French President Francois Hollande, in which he will express Israel's solidarity with the French people after the November 13 terror attacks in Paris that killed 130 people; and with Russian President Vladimir Putin, with whom he is expected to discuss Moscow's involvement in the Syrian civil war.
Netanyahu will also hold a speech to the delegates of the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change, a massive conference, which opens Monday.
