(Israel Hayom) Shimon Yaish - Venezuela is home to some 5,000 Jews. About 20,000 Jewish Venezuelans have left the country in the past decade because of economic conditions, and particularly because of how the Jewish community has been treated since 2009. Elias Farache, president of the Confederacion de Asociaciones Israelitas de Venezuela (CAIV) - the umbrella organization for the Venezuelan Jewish community - said, "The situation is tolerable. The government tries to respect us and gives us freedom to live as Jews. There are synagogues, schools, and all the Jewish services are fine. It disturbs us that there are no diplomatic relations with Israel." Venezuelan journalist Gabriel Chocron said, "The community keeps pretty much out of politics. Most of the members of the community hold very clear opinions - most of them oppose Maduro - but don't want to take a chance and get caught up in the situation. Venezuela has very good relations with the Palestinian Authority." 2019-01-28 00:00:00Full Article
