IDF Chief Zamir meets with US Air Force Chief Wilsbach to discuss Iran, regional issues
Their meeting comes as US President Donald Trump shifts from military to economic threats against the regime.
IDF Chief of Staff Lt.-Gen. Eyal Zamir met with US Air Force Commander General Kenneth S. Wilsbach and Israel Air Force Commander Maj.-Gen. Omer Tischler on Sunday in Tel Aviv to discuss Iran and other regional security issues. This meeting comes amid a shift in US policy, where President Donald Trump has moved away from military threats and towards economic sanctions against Iran to achieve nuclear and other concessions.
The visit highlights the ongoing and long-term joint military planning between the US and Israel, and the potential impact on US military assets in the region. The specific reason for Wilsbach's visit is unclear, but it may be related to the increased cooperation between the countries' air forces or the need for the new IAF Chief Tischler to settle into his role before undertaking foreign visits.
