Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is making the first-ever visit by an Israeli premier to Greece after Israel’s ties with Turkey soured following a May 31 naval commando raid on a Gaza-bound aid flotilla left nine Turks dead.

Netanyahu’s trip, which begins today, follows a visit to Israel last month by Greek Prime Minister George Papandreou. The Israeli leader will meet Papandreou and members of the Greek Jewish community.
