Biden’s expected trip was announced Monday night by Secretary of State Antony Blinken after the top US diplomat met for nearly eight hours with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.
“On Wednesday, President Biden will visit Israel,” Blinken said during a short press briefing. “He’s coming here at a critical moment for Israel, for the region and for the world.”

Biden’s trip will serve multiple purposes — first and foremost, “the president will reaffirm the United States’ solidarity with Israel and our ironclad commitment to its security,” Blinken said.
