Just hours before Shimon Peres suffered from the stroke, the former Israeli President posted a video on social media, promoting Israeli products and calling on people to join his campaign and consume Israeli-made goods.
“I recommend all of us, all of you to buy “blue and white” Israeli products. Not only because it is more patriotic, simply because it’s better. Can you think of a meal without an Israeli salad? Can you set the table without Israeli fruits? There are 350 foreign companies in Israel that invest in this country. They came here. We are already here. Why did they come? Because our products have exceptional reputation. Therefore, what’s good for them is good for us and you will do well if you give Israeli products a “Like””.
