Awareness of Assyrian Indigenous Rights in Jerusalem 2026
Awareness of Assyrian Indigenous rights in Jerusalem, 2026.
The Assyrian Supreme Council attended the National Conservatism Conference in Jerusalem to raise awareness of the Assyrian people as an ancient Indigenous people of Mesopotamia and advocate for their recognition, protection, representation, and right to self-governance on their ancestral lands.
Awareness for the Assyrian Cause in the Knesset, Israel.
Building Awareness for the Assyrian Cause in the Knesset, Israel.
The Israeli Branch leader of the Assyrian Supreme Council, Einat Ben Yossef, met with Member of Knesset Nissim Vaturi to raise awareness of the Assyrian people and the challenges we continue to face.
Many in Israeli public life are still unaware that Assyrians exist today as a distinct nation. Too often, we are placed broadly under “the Christian world,” without recognition of our unique identity, history, language, and heritage. We are working to change that.
During the meeting, we asked Nissim Vaturi to support the establishment of a parliamentary lobby for the Assyrian cause in the Knesset. Such a lobby would help build meaningful political and public support for Assyrian recognition, representation, and rights.
We have also met with Amit Halevi, Keti Shitrit, and Tally Gotliv, all of whom have shown a genuine willingness to stand with the Assyrian people.
These relationships are ongoing, and we believe they will continue to strengthen Israel’s understanding of who the Assyrians are.
With the Knesset expected to dissolve and elections likely in September, we understand that progress may slow for a period of time. MKs are entering campaign mode, and major initiatives are difficult to advance until the next Knesset is formed. Still, the groundwork we have laid is real, and it positions us to continue pushing forward once the political dust settles.
