During the summit, to which Bennett will depart on Sunday, he is also expected to meet for the first time with Bahrain Crown Prince Salman bin Hamad Al Khalifa, British Prime Minister Boris Johnson, French President Emmanuel Macron, Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi, and Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau.
The Israeli premier will also meet Australian Prime Minister Scott Morrison, Italian Prime Minister Mario Draghi, Honduran President Juan Orlando Hernández, and NATO Secretary-General Jens Stoltenberg.
The global summit, which is slated to last two weeks, will be attended by more than 100 leaders who will discuss global warming and the severe climate events that have occurred in the past year.
Bennett's meeting with Macron is expected to be an interesting one, and not just because of the fight against Iran and its nuclear program. As a reminder, tensions between Israel and France emerged over the summer in the wake of the NSO affair and accusations that the French president may have been among potential targets in 2019 of the surveillance spyware.
