Brazil will definitely move its embassy in Israel to Jerusalem, with only the date of the transfer to be decided, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said Sunday during a visit to Rio de Janeiro.
"It's not a question of 'if' but of 'when'," Netanyahu told members of Rio's Jewish community, his office said in a statement.
He said Brazil's president-elect Jair Bolsonaro assured him of the move in a meeting on Friday.
He pointed to US President Donald Trump going through with his promise to move his country's embassy and said "Bolsonaro will also do so."
