External Affairs Minister Sushma Swaraj will visit Israel and Palestine on January 17-18 to further build on the goodwill generated by the landmark trip of President Pranab Mukherjee to the two key West Asian nations three months ago.
As External Affairs Minister, it will be Swaraj’s first visit to West Asia, a strategically important region where India is trying to expand its engagement. Palestine will be her first destination, where she will hold talks with the country’s leadership to boost bilateral engagement and deepen mutual understanding at the political level.Â
Swaraj will then go to Israel on January 17 for a two-day visit.
