Michael Brodsky, Ambassador Extraordinary and Plenipotentiary of the State of Israel to Ukraine, in his address at the Fifth Kyiv Jewish Forum, said that there is close cooperation between Ukraine and Israel, in particular in studying the Ukrainian experience of countering drones.

“Israel should study this experience, should use this experience, and we are already doing it because we are now also facing the same problem of Iranian drones in Israel,” he said.

Brodsky also added that certain technologies emerged in Ukraine during the war, and Israel is studying them to use them in the future.

“As for Israeli technologies, Ukraine has always been interested in them. I am sure that even now, but also after the war is over, these technologies will be very useful for Ukraine,” he said.

Regarding the US assistance to both countries, Brodsky said that Donald Trump's administration will focus on ending the wars, so the US assistance should continue.

“This is not an issue at all. The main issue now is not how to continue the aid, but how to end all wars,” he said.

Kyiv Jewish Forum is taking place for the fifth year in a row. This year, it was held online, and Washington, D.C. became the central venue. Organizers of the Kyiv Jewish Forum are the Jewish Confederation of Ukraine (JCU) and The Jerusalem Post.

During the opening of the forum, JCU President and Vice President of the World Jewish Congress Boris Lozhkin emphasized that Ukrainians and Israelis have high hopes for the return of the US administration that has previously demonstrated its determination to help both Ukraine and Israel.
