Angela Merkel goes to Israel on goodbye tour

BBC World Service - Weekend, Angela Merkel goes to Israel on goodbye tourSearch BBC

After 16 years in office, Ms Merkel arrives in Israel for a farewell visit

Germany’s Chancellor Angela Merkel arrives in Israel, a country she transformed relations with.

Also in the programme: Senior US officials are to hold their first face-to-face meetings with the Taliban since the militants
seized control of Afghanistan; and we hear from one of the Nobel Peace Prize winners.

Our panellists this week are Laurie Goering, editor of the Thomson Reuters Foundation's news website on the human impacts of climate change, and Silio Boccanera, a London-based correspondent for Brazilian television.
