Yeruham Meshel, secretary general of Histadrut, will pay an official visit to Spain next month as the guest of the Spanish Socialist trade union movement. Meshel, who will be accompanied by Aharon Barnea, Histadrut’s European representative, is expected to confer with Socialist leaders and try to further develop relations between the labor movements of Israel and Spain. Histadrut delegates attended the Socialist trade union congress in April, 1976, the first in Spain since the Civil War, and a Spanish delegation attended the Histadrut congress last November in Jerusalem.
