Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has postponed a planned visit to Azerbaijan due to ongoing domestic and regional developments.
“In view of the latest domestic political developments, as well as processes related to the situation surrounding Syria and the Gaza Strip, Prime Minister Netanyahu has decided to reschedule his visit to Azerbaijan for another date,” the source stated.
While no new date was provided, the Israeli leader conveyed his appreciation for the invitation extended by Azerbaijani President Ilham Aliyev and emphasized the importance of the strong and warm relations between the two nations.
In a statement from the Prime Minister’s Office, Netanyahu reiterated his commitment to bilateral ties, praising the growing cooperation between Israel and Azerbaijan in sectors including energy, defense, and technology.
The postponement comes amid a backdrop of heightened tension in the Middle East, with renewed instability in Syria and continued conflict in Gaza, alongside internal political pressures within Israel.
Netanyahu was scheduled to take off for Azerbaijan on May 7 and return on May 11.
