Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu spoke by telephone today (Friday) with the President of Equatorial Guinea, Theodoru of Basugo, who announced that he would move his country's embassy to Jerusalem.

Prime Minister Netanyahu noted that Israel continues to deepen cooperation with African countries, and said that cooperation between Israel and the African continent is back in full force. The president, Theodoru of Basugo, responded that the whole of Africa welcomes Israel with open arms.

So far, only two embassies have been relocated to the United States: the United States was the first, followed by Guatemala. Honduras is also ready to move its embassy immediately, but only after the government approves the appointment of the Israeli ambassador to them. For political reasons.

The Chief Rabbi of the Association of Jewish Communities in Central Africa, Rabbi Shlomo Ben Tolila, said of the crossing: For years in Central African countries, we have been aware of and assisted in the affectionate and friendly relations between the entire Jewish people and the people living in Zion, and the peoples of Central Africa.

"I am confident that Equatorial Guinea's decision will be a symbol and role model for the rest of Central Africa to join the United States and other countries that have already moved the embassy to Jerusalem, the capital of Israel forever. We welcome the initiative which is a big step towards peace among all peoples."
