“President Barack Obama on Thursday signaled there would be no big Middle East peace initiative on the table when he arrives in Israel later this month for his first visit as US leader. Officials have styled the trip as an effort to reconnect with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, with whom he had a delicate relationship during his first term and to coordinate on key issues like Iran and Syria. ‘The President reiterated America’s unshakeable support for Israel and thanked the leaders for role they play in strengthening ties between the two nations,’ the official said.”
