Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu departed from Israel on Monday afternoon for Washington.

Axar.az reports, citing The Jerusalem Post, that he is expected to hold talks with U.S. President Donald Trump on Iran and several other issues, the Prime Minister's Office confirmed.

"We will discuss all the issues on the agenda, first and foremost, Iran. Naturally, our goal is to safeguard our security and also to expand the circle of peace around us," Netanyahu said as he prepared to board Wings of Zion.

"From my experience as prime minister, during these complex times we must act with both great determination and great wisdom," he stated.

It should be noted that Netanyahu is scheduled to meet with Trump at the White House tomorrow. He is also expected to attend the funeral of the late Senator Lindsey Graham.
