The President of the Euro-Asian Jewish Congress, Dr. Michael Mirilashvili, took part in a festive evening marking U.S. Independence Day, held in Jerusalem and organized by the Embassy of the United States in Israel.

During the event, Dr. Mirilashvili met with U.S. Ambassador to Israel Mike Huckabee and expressed deep gratitude for America’s consistent support of Israel during these difficult times of war against Islamist terror in the Middle East.

Dr. Mirilashvili stated:

“In the midst of Israel’s war with the Islamists, which began with the barbaric attack by Hamas terrorists on October 7, 2023, the global rise of antisemitism demands urgent intervention and active solutions. President Donald Trump, along with other representatives of the United States, has been carrying out this vital mission with dignity. Steps such as the U.S. withdrawal from the UN Human Rights Council, discredited by Iran; the cessation of funding for UNRWA; and the establishment of an interagency task force on combating hate in the United States — these are only part of the support given to Israel and world Jewry by the United States. For this courage and determination, we are endlessly grateful to you personally, Mr. Ambassador, to the President of the United States, and to all our American friends.”
