Bennett’s office said in a statement earlier this month that he will visit India to mark the establishment of 30 years of diplomatic relations between the two countries. The three-day trip was announced after Bennett’s “friend” and Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi sent over an invite.

“The purpose of the visit is to advance and strengthen the strategic alliance between the countries, and to expand bilateral ties. In addition, the leaders will discuss the strengthening of cooperation in a variety of areas, including innovation, economy, research and development, agriculture and more”, Israeli authorities said in a statement earlier this month, according to reports from Times of India.

“I am delighted to pay my first official visit to India at the invitation of my friend, Prime Minister (Narendra) Modi, and together we will continue leading the way for our countries’ relations”, the Israeli Prime Minister said before testing positive for COVID.
