Foreign Minister Federica Mogherini’s mission to the Middle East has begun with a visit to Tel Aviv. Her first stop was the Peres Center for Peace. This was followed by a visit to Ashdod, where, with her Israeli opposite number, Avigdor Lieberman, she met a family whose home had been seriously damaged by a rocket launched from Gaza. “The most important thing continues to be a ceasefire”, commented Mogherini.
From today, Tuesday 15 July, until Thursday 17th, Minister Mogherini will be meeting senior Israeli and Palestinian authorities. Her mission will then continue in Amman and Cairo.
