Dutch prime ministerial candidate Geert Wilders concluded his visit to Israel on Monday with a falafel meal alongside Knesset Speaker Amir Ohana and Samaria Regional Council head Yossi Dagan, according to Amit Segal (N12). Wilders was in Israel as Dagan's official guest.
The falafel meeting capped a multi-day visit by Wilders, who arrived as Dagan's guest amid a Dutch government decision to ban imports from Judea and Samaria. Earlier in his trip, Wilders met with Defense Minister Israel Katz, visited the Samaria community of Sha-Nur, and posted a photo from the Western Wall with a message of solidarity. The visit was closely watched as Wilders, a right-wing leader, is a prominent candidate for the Dutch premiership and has expressed strong support for Israeli sovereignty in Judea and Samaria.
