Netanyahu to Biden: We didn't seek to embarrass you over East Jerusalem construction
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu sought to alleviate new tensions with the United States on Tuesday, after an announcement that Israel will build 1,600 new homes in an ultra-Orthodox East Jerusalem neighborhood drew strong condemnation from the White House, and visiting U.S. Vice President Joe Biden.
The prime minister reportedly promised Biden "No one was seeking to embarrass you or undermine your visit - on the contrary, you are a true friend to Israel."
Netanyahu demanded no surprises from Shas Party's Yishai during Biden visit
After approving construction of 1,600 housing units in east J'lem during US vice president's visit, interior minister claims timing coincidental, but Ynet learns Netanyahu repeatedly demanded Yishai remain alert to prevent any embarrassment
