Israel closes diplomatic offices in Minsk

Israel has decided to close its diplomatic offices in the Belarus capital, Minsk, under the pretext of minimizing its diplomatic missions abroad.

The Russian Inter-fax agency quoted the deputy director general of the Israeli foreign ministry David Beilgh as saying in a press statement in Moscow on Monday that this measure has no political implication, rather a result of economic reasons, as Israel is obliged to minimize its missions abroad because of the reduction in the budget of its foreign ministry.
