Israeli president Shimon Peres is to visit Britain in November to discuss the Iranian nuclear threat with British leaders.
The visit - which has as yet not been formally announced - will not be an official state visit, though he is expected to meet the Queen.
The foreign ministries of the two countries are still finalising the details and schedule of the visit, but sources in the President's office confirmed to the JC that Mr Peres would be meeting, among others, Prime Minister Gordon Brown, Foreign Secretary David Miliband and Conservative leader David Cameron. He will also address members of Parliament.
An Israeli Foreign Ministry source said that one of the main issues on the agenda will be the Iranian nuclear threat.
