75th anniversary of liberation of Auschwitz to bring close to 40 world leaders to Israel

Not since the 2016 funeral of Israel’s ninth president Shimon Peres have so many global politicians come to Jerusalem at one time.
At least 36 world leaders, among them three monarchs and Russian President Vladimir Putin, will be in Israel’s capital on January 22-23 for the Fifth World Holocaust Forum (WHF) marking the 75th anniversary of the liberation of Auschwitz by the Red Army.

...Confirmed attendances include Presidents Emmanuel Macron of France, Sergio Mattarella of Italy, and Alexander Van der Bellen of Austria.
...Putin, who will not be staying at the King David, will also be in Israel to inaugurate a monument in Jerusalem to the victims of the siege of Leningrad.
It was just announced today that the US delegation will include Jared Kushner, Nancy Pelosi and VP Mike Pence.
