Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has tapped Moshik Aviv to serve as the next head of the Public Diplomacy Directorate.
The Prime Minister’s Office says that Aviv has served in “senior roles in service to the country over the past decade,” including heading the public diplomacy and state ceremonies department of the Culture Ministry for the past eight years.
Lior Haiat most recently served in the role under prime minister Yair Lapid last year until Netanyahu took office. Since then, the position has remained open. Netanyahu also did not appoint anyone to serve in the role from 2015 until he left office in 2021.
