At a formal ceremony here this week-end a building which will serve as the Israel legation was presented to Yaacov Tsur, Israel Minister to Argentina, by Argentine Jewry.
Elias Teubal, who made the formal presentation, said that the building’s doers would always be open to all Israelis and Argentines. He spoke highly of Argentina’s efforts in behalf of the Jewish state. Mr. Tsur thanked the Argentine Jews in the name of Israel President Chaim Weizmann and expressed the hope that good relations would always exist between Israel and Argentina.
