"The (US Defence) Secretary looks forward to meeting with Minister Barak," the Pentagon Press Secretary George Little told reporters at a news conference on Tuesday.
"Now they've had an excellent relationship. They've met and talked on a number of occasions, in the United States and in Israel, and they look forward to yet another discussion on a whole host of issues," Little said.
