“I pray like many around the world that peace will return to Ukraine and Russia. Israel, as reported by our government, supports the territorial integrity of Ukraine.”
Herzog called on citizens to return home following the danger: “On this occasion I call again on Israeli citizens in Ukraine to return immediately to Israel. Right now through land crossings. We are of course watching and caring for the fate of the Jewish community in Ukraine. .

I believe from the moment I took office that all the peoples in this Mediterranean region should work together on common challenges like climate crisis and other challenges. “My visit is intended to bring about further results in the excellent relations between our countries, culturally, historically and especially humanly.”
