Prime Minister of Israel, Benjamin Netanyahu, announced, his government has cancelled all Customs Duties levied on products from its “largest trading partner”, the United States (US).
The Israeli PM said, one of the advantages of the move “to the market and citizens of Israel” is that, it “will allow us to further strengthen the alliance and ties between Israel and the US”.
Netanyahu said: “We cancelled all of the customs duties levied on products from the US, Israel’s largest trading partner.
“Cancelling the customs duties on American goods is an additional step in the policy that my governments have led for a decade in opening up the market to competition, introducing variety to the economy and lowering the cost of living.
“In addition to the advantages to the market and to citizens of Israel, the current effort will allow us to further strengthen the alliance and ties between Israel and the US. We will continue to work to reduce barriers and customs, and bolster our special relationship with the US.”
