The B’nai B’rith Anti-Defamation Commission (ADC), Australia’s leading organisation fighting hatred in all its forms, has welcomed the agreement between Israel and Turkey that reinstated diplomatic relations and restored military and economic collaboration. The formal agreement will be signed on July 28 and will be followed by an exchange of ambassadors.
Dr Dvir Abramovich, Chairman of the ADC, issued the following statement:
“Clearly, we welcome this very positive and significant step which restores the very strong co-operation that the two countries had previously enjoyed and seeks the path of reconciliation. It is our hope that this renewed alliance ushers in a new period of constructive partnerships and trust that will enhance regional stability in a very volatile time, and strengthen Israel’s and Turkey’s security.”
The Anti-Defamation Commission, founded in 1979, is Australia’s leading organization fighting anti-Semitism through educational programs that combat bigotry, prejudice and all forms of hatred.
