NEW DELHI - In a setback for Delhi, Israeli PM Benjamin Netanyahu cancels official visit to India.
Less than a week before he was set to take off, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on Tuesday canceled a planned trip to India, setting off speculation that he’s eyeing a different high-profile visit before this month’s election.
The prime minister had been confirmed to fly to New Delhi for a one-day trip on September 9, during which he was scheduled to meet with Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi and possibly sign a number of bilateral agreements.
According to reports in the local press, business deals, especially in the defense industry, were on the table as well.
