Declaration Day 2025

On May 14, 1948, Israel’s independence was declared and recognized by the international bodies of the world in accordance with international law.

We are facing a void in global understanding and respect for Israel’s rights, allowing for the spread of demonization and delegitimization of the country and the Jewish people.


The modern rebirth of the Jewish state, declared proudly and unequivocally by David Ben-Gurion in 1948, was not only a historic milestone — it was a fulfillment of destiny.

Declaration Day 2025 brought that moment back to life.

In Jerusalem, we welcomed 18  nations represented by members of the diplomatic corps, organizations, and global leadership, to our official event at the prestigious David Citadel Hotel. Together, we stood united in our affirmation of Israel’s legal, moral, and eternal place in the world.
