The reception at the Pillar Hotel was attended by representatives of British Airways, local business people, the Israeli commercial attaché, and the leadership of ‘Achim Global’ which organized the delegation.

State prosecutors in Manhattan have subpoenaed President Trump’s accounting firm to demand eight years of his personal and corporate tax returns, according to several people with knowledge of the matter.
The subpoena opens a new front in a wide-ranging effort to obtain copies of the president’s tax returns, which Trump initially said he would make public during the 2016 campaign but has since refused to disclose.
The subpoena was issued by the Manhattan district attorney’s office late last month, soon after it opened a criminal investigation into the role that the president and his family business played in hush-money payments made in the run-up to the election.

According to the Times of Israel, the “Gatekeeper” initiative was launched last week, days after Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu’s failure to pass legislation in the Knesset that would have allowed cameras at the ballot box.
