Livni: Dayan’s appointment a ‘finger in the eye’ of Brazil

Zionist Union MK and former foreign minister Tzipi Livni says Dani Dayan’s delayed appointment as ambassador to Brazil isn’t personal, it’s Brasilia’s opposition to Israel’s West Bank settlement policies.

She suggests that Dayan’s appointment is politically motivated and a “finger in the eye” of the country to which he was dispatched. Should Israel appoint a diplomat of a different stripe, she says, his reception would be “in a completely different fashion.”
