American comedian Conan O’Brien, who is in Israel at the moment to record an episode of his Conan Without Borders television show, met with Israel’s prime minister on Monday and discussed...dog treats.

Benjamin Netanyahu may be facing a raft of corruption allegations, but a video posted on his official Twitter account on Monday featured the prime minister and the late night talk show host chatting over a meal at the prime minister’s residence while feeding cucumber snacks to his dog, Kaya.

“If you try to give an American dog a cucumber, he would punch you,” Mr O'Brien told Mr Netanyahu.

The Prime Minister tried his own jokes, saying that the fluffy white dog was “paler than” the comedian.
