German President Frank-Walter Steinmeier is due to arrive in Jerusalem Wednesday on a farewell tribute visit to outgoing Israeli President Reuven Rivlin, whose term ends on July 9. In response to questions submitted to the German head of state by Haaretz in advance of his visit, Steinmeier strongly opposed the pending war crimes investigation against Israel at the International Criminal Court in The Hague. And despite the German president’s support over the years for concluding a nuclear agreement with Iran, Steinmeier said Israel’s concerns regarding Iran are justified. On a more personal note, he recalled a conversation that he once had with Rivlin at a restaurant at the Mahane Yehuda market in Jerusalem about soccer.
