Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu, on Sunday evening 28 Iyar, at the Foreign Ministry in Jerusalem, before the welcoming ceremony, met with US Deputy Secretary of State John J. Sullivan.

Deputy Secretary Sullivan is the most senior member of the US delegation which arrived to take part in Monday’s dedication of the new United State Embassy in Jerusalem. While the site is temporary, the current Trump administration has finally signed off on the move, which has been postponed by President Trump’s predecessors.

Several hundred invited guests will take part in the event, which will be held under extremely heavy security amid threats from Hamas and other terror organizations.
