India and Israel on Thursday signed a slew of
agreements on cooperation in
legal assistance and public and homeland
security.
"We believe that these agreements are
another important platform for the cooperation between our countries and we
would like to express our appreciation for the leadership of the Ministry of
Home Affairs in this regard," the Israeli embassy said in a release. It
said Israel views these agreements as a part of ongoing efforts by both
countries in the war against terror.
The agreements are based on the shared
determination to protect their citizens, their assets and their interests. "Today
is an important day. The agreements that were signed are a fine example of our
substantial and equal partnership with India," said Israel's Minister of
Public Security Yitzhak Aharonovich. "The
various types and forms of threats the two countries face make this cooperation
an indispensable one. Terror is a global threat and only through cooperation
between allies can peace-seeking countries overcome such threats."
