Шаблон:Infobox bilateral relations
Israel–North Macedonia relations refer to the bilateral political relations between Israel and North Macedonia. North Macedonia has an embassy in Tel Aviv. Israel does not have a resident ambassador.
Relations between the two states are close and friendly.[1]
History
The two countries established diplomatic relations on 7 December 1995.[2] The establishment of diplomatic relations between Israel and North Macedonia was done under the then-provisional UN reference for North Macedonia - the former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia - however, Israel later changed its position and recognised North Macedonia under its former constitutional name Republic of Macedonia,[3][4] thus being one of 133[5] countries in the world recognising North Macedonia under its chosen name. North Macedonia is one of the few countries in Europe (and in the world) with no political and diplomatic relations with Palestine, of any kind.
Both countries are Ottoman successor states.
Jews in North Macedonia
The existence of Jews in North Macedonia dates back to antiquity.[6]
Today the Jewish community in North Macedonia is a small, but highly respected community, which serves as a bridge of communication between North Macedonia and Israel.[7] It numbers about 200 people, of which most of them live in the capital Skopje, but also in the town of Štip.[8]
The Jewish organizations of North Macedonia have expressed on several occasions that there is no antisemitism in North Macedonia.[9][10][11] After a meeting with the new ambassador from Israel to North Macedonia at the end of 2009, they told him that North Macedonia might be the only country where antisemitism cannot be noticed and that the Jews in North Macedonia feel secure, having the feeling to live in a country that loves Jews and has very good relations with Israel.[10][11]
The Jewish community of North Macedonia has a strong connection to the Jewish community in Serbia[12] and maintains long and close relations with the American Jewish Committee.[13]
In 2002, North Macedonia became one of few countries that has settled claims against heirless Jewish properties, by adopting a resolution that resolved outstanding Jewish communal property claims.[13]
The Government of the Republic of North Macedonia built a Holocaust Memorial Center in North Macedonia's capital Skopje, which is one of the biggest Holocaust memorial centers in the world. The State of Israel highly appreciates that kind of nourishing the Holocaust memory and testimonies of the Jewish presence in the country.[14]
