This is according to outlets Breitbart and Ynet News.
They claim that a meeting took place at the World Travel Market (WTM) fair in London, where Israeli Tourism Minister Yariv Levin and Israeli Ambassador to the UK Mark Regev held discussions with our commercial arm.
Liverpool’s desire to get involved with Israel stems from the fact two prominent members of FSG, our owners, are Jewish, says the report.
