Ecuador’s vice president will take up a post in Tel Aviv to pursue a peace agreement between Israelis and the Palestinians, the government in Quito said, AFP reports.
President Daniel Noboa, who took office on Thursday for an abbreviated 18-month term, assigned the peace portfolio to Vice President Veronica Abad as her “sole function,” a statement said.
Abad will work out of Ecuador’s embassy in Tel Aviv as a “collaborator for peace and to prevent the escalation of the conflict between Israel and Palestine,” it said without specifying when she will travel there or for how long.
