PM praises plans for Eilat Railway

Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu praised plans for the Eilat Railway in his opening remarks at Sunday's cabinet meeting, saying it would dramatically affect Israel for the next 50 years.
"This will also be a line for the shipment of goods from Asia to Europe," he explained. "It will create a very great interest on the part of the rising powers - India and China - and others, in Israel. It therefore has strategic, national, and international importance."
