The first countries to renew relations were considered daring and brave, having done so in violation of the OAU's resolution and challenging the authority of the Arab states who in turn threatened to cut off their aid. <br />Today, Israel maintains full diplomatic relations with 39 of 47 of the countries south of the Sahara and has nine resident embassies on the continent. <br /> <br />The restoration of diplomatic relations was accompanied by the renewal of government cooperation, albeit on a much smaller scale than had previously existed, focusing primarily on MASHAV training programs and humanitarian aid. Today, most of the Israeli activity on the African continent is of private corporations, primarily in the fields of development, diamonds, Africa's abundant raw materials and natural resources, infrastructure, telecommunications, and large agricultural projects."<br /><br />More information on your question:<br />http://www.mfa.gov.il/MFA/About+the+Ministry/Behind+the+Headlines/Behind_the_Headlines-History_Israel-Africa_relations<br /><br />and also <br />http://www.mfa.gov.il/MFA/Facts+About+Israel/Among+the+Nations/ISRAEL+AMONG+THE+NATIONS-+Africa.htmDinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03461925401870320466noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1014444390969839620.post-9004869381337755502010-03-08T15:37:41.164+02:002010-03-08T15:37:41.164+02:00Hip hip hurray for women!

Israel sent people to teach agriculture to the poor nations in Africa, but after the 1967 War, the Arab countries "bought off" the leaders and turned them against Israel. Is this still the case today, or has there been a renewed effort by Israel to develop contacts with the sub-sahara nations?moneythoughtshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08462893426608294171noreply@blogger.com
