Quebec announces opening of Representative Bureau in Israel

Minister of International Relations and La Francophonie and Minister responsible for the Status of Women Martine Biron announced the establishment of a Québec Representative office in Tel Aviv, Israel. This is the 35th representative office of Quebec abroad and the first in the Middle East.
