Netanyahu seeks African support at UN in return for $1bn investment
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is in Liberia to attend a summit for the Economic Community of West African States.
Netanyahu says he wants to expand trade and win allies. He has signed a memorandum of understanding with ECOWAS members for green energy projects worth $1bn.
But Netanyahu wants something in return. „I ask for your support in rejecting anti-Israel bias at the United Nations and in bodies such as the general assembly, UNESCO and the Human Rights Council,“ he told the summit.
