Israeli Defence Minister Benny Gantz visited the U.S. and met with his U.S. counterpart. The two sides issued “a joint declaration confirming the U.S.’s strategic commitment to Israel’s qualitative military edge in the Middle East”. Gantz remarked that “now that we are entering an era of good and positive normalisation processes in the Middle East, which actually can face aggressive Iran and all the region, this ability to cooperate and make continued cooperation, I would say, is so very important”.
