'Full confidence in security': Israel after Netanyahu defers India visit; new dates soon
New Delhi: Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s office issued a statement on Tuesday reaffirming "full confidence" in India's security under Prime Minister Narendra Modi, following media reports suggesting that Netanyahu's planned visit to India had been postponed due to security concerns.
The clarification came after media reports emerged claiming that Netanyahu’s visit was deferred in the wake of the November 10 car blast near Delhi’s Red Fort.
"Israel’s bond with India and between Prime Minister Netanyahu and Prime Minister @narendramodi is very strong. The PM has full confidence in India’s security under PM Modi, and teams are already coordinating a new visit date," read a post by Prime Minister of Israel's official X handle.
Netanyahu had been expected to visit India before the end of the year, according to Israeli outlet i24 News Hebrew. His office has confirmed that discussions are ongoing to finalise a new date for the visit.
