In anticipation of the Indian prime minister's arrival in Israel, it is possible to learn from the Indian media that their attitude toward Israel is changing significantly.
An editorial in the Indian newspaper The Hindustan Times stated that Prime Minister Nerandra Moody's visit to Israel, which coincides with the end of the year, is no less than a "historic" event. The newspaper noted that this was the first visit by an Israeli prime minister to Israel and that this was an opportunity. For the first time, Indians will recognize the strength of their country's ties with Israel, and will not assume that they are the same as those between India and the Palestinian Authority.

The article states that India should cut off dependence on its relations with Israel and its relations with the Palestinians. Such a step would "suit Moody's general mood that Indian foreign policy should reflect India's rising profile in the world and match its national interests, Ideological. "
The newspaper described the sharp change in the connection between India and Israel since 1992 when he described Israel as a senior strategic partner. States that Israel is one of the three largest arms suppliers of the Indians and assists them in their war on terror program. "In a unique way in the world, Israel is a partner in the development of the nuclear arsenal of India, and this fact alone shows that India relies more on Israel than any other country in the world."
The newspaper's editors said that Moody's visit to Israel was proof that India had close diplomatic relations with Israel, since if it had not been so, Moody's visit would have been unnecessary. The newspaper did not relate to the claim that India is in no hurry to approach Israel as a result of concern over the response of the Arab states.
There was also a reference to the Israeli-Palestinian issue: "India has not withdrawn its recognition of the Palestinian state because of its belief in the two-state solution." However, there is no connection between this position of New Delhi and its growing ties with Jerusalem. The paper revealed another angle in the Indians' approach to the Palestinians when he wrote that there is concern that Palestinian nationalism is based and supported by radical Islam, which worries the Indian leadership.
In conclusion, the Indian prime minister's visit to Israel is an extreme step that will include changes in New Delhi's policies, which were supposed to take place years ago.
Many media outlets in India have been dealing with Israel recently, against the background of 25 years of ties between the two countries. The Indian media dealt, among other things, with upcoming meetings in the coming year between prime ministers Netanyahu and Moody who will host each other in their countries, the close military-security ties between the two countries and, of course, arms trade agreements between them.
