Approved as UN envoy, Danon says he’ll represent Israel ‘with pride’
New Israeli ambassador to the United Nations Danny Danon says that he will represent Israel “with pride, a sense of mission and national responsibility.”
“There is no other democracy in the world that is surrounded by enemies in the form of terrorist organizations, without scruples or morals, whose main aspiration is our annihilation,” he says. “Even so, Israel finds itself under frequent attack in the international arena. It is up to us to fight this contradiction with all of our might.”
