The Israeli Cabinet on Sunday gave its unanimous backing to place Ruth Cohen-Dar as the nation’s inaugural resident ambassador to Slovenia, marking a significant expansion of formal ties between the two countries.<\/p>\n
Cohen-Dar is a veteran diplomat who already manages Israel’s regional interests as the non-resident ambassador to both Slovenia and Malta. Her career in foreign service includes prior postings in high-profile diplomatic hubs, including Washington, D.C., Vienna, and Warsaw.<\/p>\n
The decision to station a permanent envoy on-site in Ljubljana follows Israel’s recent initiative to establish an official embassy<\/a> in the Central European country.<\/p>\n The political upgrade comes amid a noticeable pivot in Slovenian foreign policy under the newly formed government of conservative Prime Minister Janez Jansa. The incoming administration has moved rapidly to systematically roll back<\/a> a series of measures implemented by its political predecessors, which included dissolving specific anti-Israel sanctions<\/a> and dismantling a localized military arms embargo.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The Israeli Cabinet on Sunday gave its unanimous backing to place Ruth Cohen-Dar as the nation’s inaugural resident…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":527226,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2],"tags":[85,46,43,10496],"class_list":["post-527225","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-israel","tag-il","tag-israel","tag-news","tag-slovenia"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/527225","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=527225"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/527225\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/527226"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=527225"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=527225"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=527225"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
