Ron Dermer has risen to the challenge as an articulate and passionate defender of the Jewish state.

FOLCS and 92Y hosted a wide-ranging conversation with Ambassador Dermer on such topics as the new Trump administration and its relationship with Israel, the impending American embassy move to Jerusalem, reviving the peace process, continued Palestinian incitement, Israeli settlements, the deteriorating situation in Gaza, and the recent Iranian drone launching from Syria.
