Yosef Shagal, Russian-speaking lobbyist of the Israeli-Turkic strategic
alliance announced that he gives up politics and returns to journalism.
A Baku native, Shagal became leader of the Azerbaijan-Israel
International Association in April 2007 to "cement ties between the
two states."
In spring 2008, Yosef Shagal opposed discussion of the Armenian
Genocide in Knesset, describing it as a threat to relations with
Turkey and Azerbaijan.
Shagal will not enter the history of Israeli parliamentarianism but
his activities were significant for Israeli presence in the post-soviet
area and for the development of the South Caucasus vector to neutralize
the Iranian threat, Turtsia.ru reports.
