Konrad Adenauer and David Ben-Gurion
55 years since the first meeting
Exactly 55 years ago David Ben-Gurion and Konrad Adenauer held their first historic meeting in the Waldorf Astoria in New York and thereby led the cornerstone for what we are commemorating this year: The 50th anniversary of the establishment of German-Israeli diplomatic relations. On this occasion we brought together the grandsons of these two important leaders, Dr. Yariv Ben-Eliezer and Dr. Patrick Adenauer, who exchanged their views and expressed their wish for a further strengthening of the relations between the two peoples.
