In a moving address from Jerusalem, Israeli President Isaac Herzog speaks to AJC Global Forum 2026, expressing deep gratitude to all advocates standing with Israel and the Jewish people around the world.

Against the backdrop of rising global antisemitism and antizionism, he emphasizes the need for unity, moral clarity, and steadfast support for Israel’s right to live in peace and security.

“It is therefore, my friends, when our most precious values are driving us forward, we are called to defend them. It is when they are under threat—a time of peril, of moral confusion, of rising tides of fear and uncertainty—that’s when we must summon our deepest resources.”
