(Jpost).The cabinet on Sunday will be asked to approve the appointment of Foreign Minister Avigdor Lieberman as the minister in charge of Israel's strategic dialogue with the US.
The strategic dialogue is a framework for multi-agency high level discussions on strategic issues common to both countries that is held a number of times during the year, and which of late has focused on the Iranian threat. The dialogue was established in 1999.
Lieberman will be taking over this position from Shaul Mofaz, who was in charge of the dialogue under the Olmert government.
