Sadat’s nephew begins diplomatic post in Israel

He was only 3 years old when his uncle signed the historic peace treaty with Israel. More than 30 years later, Ahmad Sadat has arrived in Israel to serve as diplomatic adviser to Egyptian ambassador Itamar Eichner.

Nearly three decades after his assassination, former Egyptian President Anwar Sadat remains a symbol of courage and peace.

Israeli newspaper Yediot Achronot reported that the young Sadat arrived in Israel at the beginning of May and began his official post at the Tel Aviv embassy. Sadat, 34, is married and this is his second diplomatic mission — and his first visit to Israel.

As part of his role as an adviser, Sadat will accompany the Egyptian ambassador to all his meetings at the Foreign Ministry and the Prime Minister’s Office. — ynetnews.com
