View answerI received an invitation from the Ambassador of Israel to attend an official reception to mark Israel’s Independence Day, which this year also marked the seventieth anniversary of Israel’s independence. I know that this is an important day for the Israeli people. For scheduling reasons, I was unable to attend, and my regrets were conveyed to the Ambassador.
