At around noon, he will meet Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and his wife at their official residence on Jerusalem's Balfour Street, which is named after Lord Arthur Balfour, a former UK foreign secretary who in 1917 made Israel's creation possible by expressing support for the "establishment in Palestine of a national home for the Jewish people"
