Diplomatic Adviser to the Minister for Foreign Affairs Laila Clyne told Daily Finland that the visit was postponed but the ministry was looking to find a new date that is mutually suitable for the ministers.
“I believe that Minister Blinken is currently tied up with another visit,” Clyne said.
Secretary of State Antony Blinken is scheduled to visit Israel to express support of its government, the US State Department said Tuesday.
Blinken is scheduled to land in Israel on Thursday.
