Ambassador Avraham Harman of Israel met with Secretary of State Dean Rusk this afternoon, prior to the ambassador’s return to Jerusalem for consultations. It is assumed that Mr. Harman’s visit is connected primarily with the preparations for the visit in Washington of Israel Prime Minister Levi Eshkol who is due here June 1, as guest of President Johnson.
It is believed that a preliminary review of some of the issues to be taken up by Mr. Eshkol was the subject of today’s conversation between Secretary of State Rusk and Ambassador Harman. It is expected that during Mr. Harman’s talks in Israel, the detailed agenda of Mr. Eshkol’s American visit will be finalized. Mr. Harman is scheduled to leave for Israel this Friday.
