Maj.-Gen. Ashkenazy refused entry to New Zealand
New Zealand has refused to grant entrance to Major General Gaby Ashkenazy because of strained relations between the two countries. New Zealand Foreign Minister Phil Goth confirmed the incident, saying that refusal was part of the decision not to conduct high-level contacts with Israel, Army Radio reported. Relations between Israel and New Zealand have been tense since last year, when two Israelis, suspected of working for the Mossad, attempted to gain New Zealand passports.Posted by: gromgorru 2005-03-15 |
