WASHINGTON - Prime Minister Naftali Bennett deemed his trip to Washington a success, on his way onto the plane back to Israel on the tarmac at Joint Base Andrews.
Bennett said the meeting with US President Joe Biden was "very warm and helpful," and they built a "direct and personal connection built on trust."
The leaders agreed on a joint strategic plan to stop Iran's "race to the bomb," he added.
"We accomplished all the goals we set, and beyond that," Bennett added.
