Israeli Ambassador Michael Brodsky: “It's always nice to talk to friends.”
Thousands of strong ties connect Ukraine and Ukrainians with Israel and its citizens. Some of us have old friends living there, others have relatives, some have collaborated with scientists or businesspeople from that country, and some have traveled there for vacation or medical treatment.
