Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has announced that he postponed next week’s visit to Azerbaijan, in part due to recent developments in Gaza and Syria, Reuters reports.
The prime minister’s office also cited “the intense diplomatic and security schedule” and said that the visit would be rescheduled, without announcing a new date.
Netanyahu was to visit Azerbaijan from May 7-11 and was expected to meet with President Ilham Aliyev. Israel and Azerbaijan maintain close security and energy ties.
