Chamber of Deputies' Speaker Liviu Dragnea, on an official visit to Israel, met on Thursday with Israeli Premier Benjamin Netanyahu with whom he discussed opportunities to strengthen Romania - Israel bilateral cooperation. "Today I had the pleasure to discuss with Benjamin Netanyahu, Prime Minister of the government of the State of Israel and Minister of Foreign Affairs, opportunities to strengthen our cooperation by attracting Israeli capital to the Sovereign Development and Investment Fund, but also to other sectors of Romanian economy. The main topics also included cooperation in technological and industrial research, mainly the Magurele ELI-NP high-power laser. As a matter of fact, Romania and Israel have an excellent cooperation in the line of defence and education, with this co-operation underpinning the development of bilateral defence and military research as well as cyber-security," the Social Democrat leader said in a Facebook post.
