Bilateral foreign relations exist between Austria and Israel.
History
Austria recognized Israel on March 5, 1949. Austria has an embassy in Tel Aviv and 3 honorary consulates (in Eilat, Haifa and Jerusalem).[1] Israel has an embassy in Vienna.[2] Both countries are full members of the Union for the Mediterranean. The Austrian Foreign Ministry lists the bilateral treaties with Israel (in German only).[3] On February 2, 1956, the Austrian Government announced the establishment of diplomatic relations with Israel.[4]
In 2000, after the Freedom Party of Austria joined the coalition government, Israel recalled its ambassador. After talks in Jerusalem with the Austrian foreign minister, Benita Ferrero-Waldner in 2003, relations were restored.[5] In both October and December 2023, Austria voted against a resolution for a ceasefire in the 2023 Israel-Hamas War.
