Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu offered Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni a deal to sell Rome Israeli gas for a lower price in return for recognizing Israel’s annexation of Eastern Jerusalem, declaring Jerusalem the unified capital of Israel, and moving its embassy from Tel Aviv.
“I believe the time has come for Rome to recognize Jerusalem as the ancestral capital of the Jewish people for three thousand years, as the United States did with a gesture of great friendship,” Netanyahu told Meloni in Rome.
