Jerusalem, 30 December, 2018 (TPS-IL) -- Brazilian President-elect Jair Bolsonaro will move his country’s embassy to Jerusalem, Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu said Sunday during a meeting with Jewish leaders in Rio de Janeiro. Netanyahu said Bolsonaro had told him ‘I will move the embassy to Jerusalem. It’s not a question of if, just a question of when.’ Netanyahu said Bolsonaro had accepted his invitation to visit Israel in the coming months and would do so by March. “I look forward to receiving him with the same spirit and the same brotherhood that he received me and that you are receiving us,” Netanyahu said.
Netanyahu will attend Bolsonaro’s inauguration ceremony on January 1.
