🇮🇱🤝☀️ Israel and Kurdistan: A Partnership of Past, Present and Future I was honored to take part in the first International Jewish Kurdish Conference in London and to speak about the complex geopolitical situation in the Middle East. In my speech, I focused on the Jewish and Kurdish interests, challenges and threats they face, and the opportunities for a future partnership, friendship and cooperation. I am pleased to share the special greeting sent by my dear friend, the Foreign Minister of the State of Israel, @gidonsaar who expressed his support for strengthening the connection between our two peoples. It is important for the Kurdish people to know and understand that the only country that openly stands with their aspiration for independence of Kurdistan is the State of Israel. The connection between Israel and Kurdistan is not based only on geopolitical interests and common enemies but also common history, culture and shared memories of 2800 years coexistence. The Jews and Kurds are naturally connected ancient people who love freedom and peace, facing common threats, and sharing interests. They carry the same hope for a better and peaceful Middle East. Shared roots. Stronger together. Her bijî Kurdistan! Her bijî Israel! 🇮🇱☀️ Yehuda Ben Yosef President of the Kurdish Community in Israel #Israel #Kurdistan #Kurds #JewishKurdishFriendship #FreeKurdistan #StrongerTogether #MiddleEast
