On Tuesday, his last day in Israel before traveling on to Egypt, President Leonel Fernandez met with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu at the Knesset. They agreed on cooperation between the two countries in the areas of education, technology, agriculture and trade. Both heads of state also agreed to continue diplomatic talks during the next general assembly of the United Nations, which is scheduled for September.
During his official visit to Israel, Fernandez also met President Shimon Peres and Foreign Minister Avigdor Lieberman, as well as business leaders.
In a recent address, Netanyahu had backed a Palestinian state alongside Israel, although he conditioned this position to the Palestinian state not having an army. Netanyahu also said the Palestinian state would have to reciprocate by recognizing Israel as the Jewish state.
