(JNS) Shiryn Ghermezian - Israel's ambassador to the UK Mark Regev is completing his five-year term. During a webinar on Thursday he urged Britain and all countries to relocate their embassies from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem, following the U.S. embassy's move in May 2018. A country not relocating its embassy to Jerusalem is "discrimination against Israel." He gave examples of countries that changed capital cities in the past (such as Turkey moving its capital from Istanbul to Ankara), and in each case, the international community responded by relocating embassies to the new capitals. "Only in the case of Israel do people say we don't respect your right as a sovereign independent country to choose your own capital city. And in the case of Jerusalem, it's particularly egregious because Jerusalem has been the capital of the Jewish people not since the founding of the State of Israel, but this goes back 3,000 years to the time of the Bible. To ignore the Jewish connection to Jerusalem over so many centuries is to ignore reality." 2020-06-22 00:00:00Full Article
