Raam leader Mansour Abbas and his colleague Waleed Taha visited the Foreign Ministry in Jerusalem Aug. 8 and met with Foreign Minister Yair Lapid. The visit included a briefing on the ministry and its different diplomatic activities.
"Today, we toured the Foreign Ministry and got acquainted with its professional staff, with the purpose of creating a framework that could especially serve and benefit Arab citizens and students. We thank Foreign Minister Lapid, the ministry’s CEO Ushpiz and all the ministry staff,’’ said Abbas after the visit. Lapid thanked Abbas and Taha for the visit, noting that the ministry deals with several issues that are pertinent to Arab-Israeli society, which is why it was so important to exchange views and opinions with the two Arab legislators.
