Alliance with the U.S. Helps Israel at the UN


(Jerusalem Post) Danny Danon - Our government will soon sign a new Memorandum of Understanding for American aid with the Obama administration. With the current MOU actually expiring only in 2018, the fact that President Obama and Prime Minister Netanyahu are committed to signing the agreement now signals the close cooperation between our two administrations. When you add this MOU to the military and intelligence collaborations over the past seven years, you understand the level of commitment of the American government to Israel's security and well-being. At the UN, the support that we receive from U.S. Ambassador Samantha Power and the American delegation plays a key role in our successes. Over the past six months this relationship has assisted us in making important inroads at numerous international bodies where we are contributing to the betterment of the world. Additionally, we are now seeing a record number of Israelis integrated into official UN bodies and organizations. None of these undertakings would be possible without our American friends. The writer is Israel's ambassador to the UN.
