Mayor of Jerusalem and the Israeli ambassador visit the governor

On Tuesday, June 3, the Honorable Nir Barkat, Mayor of Jerusalem, and H.E. Ms. Ruth Kahanoff, Ambassador of Israel to Japan, paid a courtesy call on Governor Masuzoe.

During the meeting, the governor said, “I want to make the Tokyo 2020 Olympic and Paralympic Games the best ever. I hope that many people from Israel will visit our city during the event. As I think Jerusalem and Tokyo both have problems unique to large cities, I wish to promote exchange between our two cities.”
