More than 2,400 AJC members, including 400 college students, met at the International Conference Center to listen to many leaders, including Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu; Sebastian Kurz, Austria’s federal chancellor; Boykin Borisson, the Republic of Bulgaria’s prime minister; Tzipi Levni, co-leader of the Zionist Union, and Miss Israel and Miss Iraq.
