Israel’s National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir has canceled a planned family trip to the United States after encountering difficulties in obtaining a visa, News.Az reports, citing Haaretz.
The US Embassy informed Ben-Gvir that he would be required to appear in person to submit biometric fingerprints as part of the visa application process.
Israeli media interpreted this requirement as a possible indication of reluctance to issue him a visa.
The minister was reportedly scheduled to travel to Miami to attend the wedding of an Israeli businessman’s daughter.
Haaretz previously reported that Ben-Gvir initially asked for the businessman to finance the trip, but later agreed to pay for the expenses himself after criticism from the state comptroller.
Ben-Gvir has frequently drawn attention for controversial and provocative actions that have sparked widespread criticism and international condemnation.
