Azar termed the relationship between Israel and India as very special and unique and noted that it has to do with six core values.
He named ‘civilizational resilience and national revival’ as the first core value of both nations, saying that both civilisations were attacked by foreign powers for centuries.
“Our identity was targeted, and there was, throughout history, an effort to try to strip us of our identity. But despite the ordeal that we had to pass through in modern millennia, we survived; our identity survived. And this is what we have in common,” he stated in the video message shared on X.
