Dear Prime Minister Jaap de Hoop Scheffer,

I am writing to you today as the newly appointed Prime Minister of the State of Israel. My office has been in constant communication with the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and I would like to begin our outreach to the Kingdom of the Netherlands to open dialogue between our two countries. It has been noted that our two countries have worked with each other in the past under previous administrations and I would like to continue the strong bond our two countries have. I would like to invite yourself or a senior minister from your government to Jerusalem with a mandate to begin a relationship between our two administrations which will be excellent for the people of our wonderful countries.

Kind Regards,
Merav Michaeli
Prime Minister of Israel
State of Israel
