Prime Minister @narendramodiI anticipate working together to further create the special and warm relations between our two democracies,” Bennett tweeted out of his official manage.

Alternative Prime Minister and Foreign Minister Yair Lapid also stated that Israel’s new administration will work to”advance tactical connections” with India.
“I look forward to working with each other to improve the strategic connections between our nations and expect to welcome you to Israel shortly,” Lapid tweeted Monday in reaction to your congratulatory message in External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar.
Jaishankar before in a tweet congratulated his brand new American counterpart.
“Congratulate APM & FM @yairlapid of all Israel on his or her appointment.
Look forward to working closely together to further progress our multifaceted strategic venture,” Jaishankar wrote.

Inside his tweets, Modi also hauled his”deep gratitude” into Netanyahu, whose lengthy tenure as prime minister stopped on Sunday.

“As you finish your successful tenure as the Prime Minister of the State of Israel, I express my deep gratitude for the leadership and personal focus on India-Israel strategic venture @netanyahu,” Modi tweeted.
The personal chemistry between the two leaders has always been spoken about at the Israeli press and Prime Minister Modi obtained a royal welcome through his historic visit to the Jewish country at July 2017 if Netanyahu followed him nearly like a shadow throughout his whole trip.
The gesture extended to Modi is allowed for very few individuals in Israel.
The newest national unity government – the unprecedented coalition of both ideologically divergent political parties attracted by the Right, the Left and the Centre, together with an Arab celebration – includes a razor-thin bulk in a 120-member home.
The creation of this new government stopped the political impasse in the nation that found four elections less than two decades resulting in inconclusive results.
