Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu arrived in Washington, D.C., on Sunday night, where he met with Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick as Israel faces a steep reciprocal tariff set to take effect on April 9.

Last week, President Donald Trump announced his “Liberation Day” tariffs on countries that tax U.S. goods, of which Israel was a part. The Jewish state was hit with a 17% tariff after the White House found that the country has in place a 33% tariff rate on U.S. imports.
