Pompeo later summarized the meeting on Twitter.
“This evening in Brussels, I met with PM Netanyahu. It was a joy to wish him a Happy Hanukkah as we lit candles on the menorah. Chag Sameach! I also emphasized our commitment to Israel’s national security and absolute right to self-defense,” he wrote.
