Ambassador Sophia Tesfamariam welcomed Moshe Klein, founder of the Jewish Diaspora Project, to Eritrea at the UN
Ahead of Rosh Hashanah, the Jewish New Year, Moshe brought honey and sweet treats, a thoughtful gesture symbolizing wishes for a sweet and peaceful year ahead.
Both exchanged views on global issues, the work of the UN, and developments in the Horn of Africa.
Having visited Eritrea, Moshe brings a valuable first-hand appreciation of Eritrea's perspectives and its unique historical and regional context.
People-to-people engagement and dialogue across cultures and communities can contribute meaningfully to greater understanding and friendship.
Happy Rosh Hashanah to all those celebrating. May the New Year bring peace, health and prosperity.
