Israeli Humanitarian Aid in Venezuela Focuses Solely on Relief Efforts, Says Coalition Leader
Yosef Germon, president of the Humanitarian Coalition and former chief rabbi of Guatemala, who also serves as a reserve captain in the Israeli Armored Corps, spoke this week on a major Venezuelan news channel about Israel's aid efforts following the deadly earthquakes last week. During the interview, Germon emphasized his unwavering commitment to assisting the local population without any political considerations. "We are here to help, there is no politics," he stated.
Germon, recognized internationally for his extensive experience leading aid missions and managing emergency operations across Latin America, explained that his approach prioritizes rapid and professional humanitarian response in crisis zones. He stressed that their work is independent of the governing authorities or political situations, focusing solely on the urgent needs of affected communities.
This statement highlights Israel's humanitarian engagement in Venezuela as strictly humanitarian, aiming to provide immediate relief after the recent natural disaster without political involvement or influence.
