    Germany and Israel are both leading nations in science and research. German-Israeli cooperation in research and technology started in 1959 between the Max Planck Society (MPG) and the Weizmann Institute and has since developed into an important element of Germany and Israel’s bilateral relations.

  • Politics

    Both, Germany and Israel are - after almost 60 years of existence - long established parliamentary democracies. The Reparations Agreement (Luxemburger Abkommen), which was concluded between the Federal Republic of Germany and the State of Israel in 1952, paved the way for a rapprochement between both countries.
