Israel hails Bolivia’s government for renewing ties

Foreign Minister Israel Katz praises Bolivia’s transitional government over its announcement it’s renewing ties with Israel, saying it will “contribute to Israel’s foreign relations and to its international status.”

He says the Foreign Ministry has been working to renew the diplomatic relations for a long time, including via Brazilian President Jair Bolsonaro and that country’s foreign minister.

He adds the move has been made possible thanks to the ouster of former Bolivian president Evo Morales, “who was hostile to Israel,” and the emergence of a government sympathetic to the Jewish state.
