Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has expressed deep sorrow over the passing of Indian business icon Ratan Tata, calling him a “champion of the friendship” between India and Israel. In a heartfelt letter addressed to Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi, Netanyahu conveyed his condolences, stating that both he and many in Israel are mourning the loss of Tata.
“My friend Modi, I and many in Israel mourn the loss of Ratan Naval Tata,” Netanyahu wrote, highlighting Tata’s significant role in strengthening ties between the two nations.
Ratan Tata, one of India’s most respected industrialists, was known for his visionary leadership and global influence, and his contributions to fostering closer economic and cultural relations with Israel have been widely recognized. Netanyahu’s tribute underscores the impact Tata had on both countries, particularly in promoting cooperation in areas such as technology and innovation.
Tata’s passing marks the end of an era, and leaders around the world continue to pay their respects to the man who played a pivotal role in shaping India’s industrial and international partnerships.
