After announcement issued by the organization of "ANIMASYROS 2024", through which it announces the termination of cooperation with the Embassy of Israel in Greece, the Embassy of Israel made the following announcement: 

"ANIMASYROS International Animation Festival has been a long-standing partner of the Embassy of Israel, believing that art and culture should be a meeting place that promotes dialogue, inclusion and pluralism. It is therefore sad and deeply disappointing that the festival abandoned these values, cowardly succumbing to the intimidation of anti-Israel groups and small political factions, cutting off its cooperation with the Embassy.We had higher expectations...

Collaborators, and indeed all who value free cultural exchanges, should condemn this decision and raise their voices."
