Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky are among the world leaders planning to attend the late Sen. Lindsey Graham’s funeral on Tuesday — and diplomacy may also be on tap while they are in town.
President Trump is expected to meet with Netanyahu while he is in town, according to the prime minister’s office.
“At the invitation of President Trump, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu will fly next Monday for a visit to Washington,” Netanyahu’s office said.
“As part of the visit, the Prime Minister will meet on Tuesday with President Trump at the White House and will participate in the funeral ceremony for Senator Lindsey Graham, a friend of Israel,” it added.
Graham met with Zelensky during his trip to Kyiv days before his death on July 11 as he pushed for a new Russian sanctions in his final hours.
Zelensky will be traveling to Washington for the funeral, but additional meetings could also take shape, according to a source familiar with the planning.
