Israel Hosts 40 UN Ambassadors
(Jerusalem Post) Herb Keinon - Israeli Ambassador to the UN Danny Danon is acting as a guide for 40 fellow UN ambassadors currently visiting Israel. After visiting the City of David on Monday, Ethiopia's Ambassador Tekeda Alemu said: "This has been a very fantastic experience. One lesson that was very clear is that there is a clear connection between the Old City of Jerusalem and the Jewish people. This cannot be ignored." Danon said he has seen a change in voting patterns at the UN by countries whose ambassadors have come on these trips in the past. In 2016, Danon brought 9 ambassadors to Israel and 14 came in 2017.
