Press freedom is more important than ever in the fight against the #COVID19 pandemic. Journalists pay a heavy price for their work, and today we highlight their vital role. #WorldPressFreedomDay#WPFD2020
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu spoke yesterday by telephone with EU Commission President Ursula von der Leyen, who called to invite the Prime Minister to participate in the leaders' summit on dealing with the #coronavirus.
Congratulations to the Israeli Innovation Authority and the EU's @EIB for signing an MOU on cooperation in bio-medical tech convergence. The first result being a €50 million investment in Israeli company @Pluristem, for the development of #Covid19 therapies.
“In every aspect there is, #Israel is an important partner to Europe. With confidence in our innovative companies and the best of our researchers, together, we will gain the inevitable victory over the virus."

In this battle, we must join forces – and it fills me with pride to tell you that Israel’s best researchers and entrepreneurs work tirelessly on solutions that will bring life back to normality worldwide…”
“Together, we have been tackling a range of issues that matter to our societies, from health, to climate change, to the digital economy. Today, we are collectively facing what is probably the worst pandemic in a century, COVID-19.
“Israel has been an associated country to the European Framework Programs for more than 24 years, enabling numerous researchers and companies in the EU and Israel to cooperate in research, development, deployment and investment in pioneering technologies.”
We are also delighted and supportive of the important collaboration between the EIB and the Israel Innovation Authority to explore additional investment opportunities in companies in the area of Bio-Convergence and health for the benefit of the whole society.”
During today’s signing ceremony, Ambassador of Israel to the EU Aharon Leshno-Yaar said:
“My warmest congratulations and best wishes to Pluristem and the EIB on the occasion of the signing of the contract.
Today the European Investment Bank (#EIB) established a collaboration with the Israel Innovation Authority and signed a €50 million financing agreement with the biotech company #Pluristem to develop stem cell therapies for #COVID-19 and other serious medical conditions.
I applaud the German govt for the decision to designate Hezbollah a terror organization. In my conversations with @HeikoMaas he promised to help & I thank him. I call on other European countries & the EU to do the same. Hezbollah is a terror organization & must be treated as such
