IsraelSeen – Meet Israel’s Matriarchs of Diplomacy
H/T Unitedwithisrael.org
Meet some of the talented women who serve as Israel’s ambassadors to the nations of the world.
Israel’s ambassadors live in far flung locales throughout the world, working diligently to implement the Jewish state’s foreign policy and protect Israeli interests abroad. Many of these diplomats are women whose talents and values are shaped by the diverse cultures that make up the modern state of Israel.
Belaynesh Zevadia, for example, was born in Ethiopia and came to Israel with her parents. She returned to Ethiopia many years later as the Israeli ambassador.
Israel’s Ambassador to Japan, Yaffa Ben-Ari, spent decades in foreign service in Western nations, before discovering her affinity for the people and cultures of East Asia.
Meet these, and other women, who are the face of Israel to nations around the world!
