Sa’ar announces Israel will open embassy in Zambia
2025-01-29
More normalcy now that Donald Trump is returned to the White House.
[IsraelTimes] Foreign Minister Gideon Sa’ar announces that Israel will be opening an embassy in Zambia.

A statement from the Foreign Ministry calls Zambia a “friend of Israel” and says opening an embassy there will advance bilateral relations and is also “part of a broader move to strengthen relations with countries in Africa.” Sa’ar invites his Zambian counterpart, Mulambo Haimbe, to visit Israel.

Diplomat Ofra Farhi currently serves as a non-residential ambassador to Zambia, Zimbabwe and Botswana. Zambian President Hakainde Hichilema visited Israel in August 2023. Zambia and Israel re-established ties in 1991 and the African nation opened an embassy in Tel Aviv in 2015.

Yeah, I know, Africa. Still, it is a positive sign.
