Moshe Tur-Paz is a Yesh Atid MK who made aliyah from Philadelphia. He is a former director-general of the Jerusalem Education Authority, the World ORT education network in Israel and the school system of the Religious Kibbutzim Movement.
According to Tur-Paz, most haredim believe that Torah study safeguards Israel to the same degree as military service, and are unwilling to join the IDF.
Israel had not hosted a Polish delegation in four years before this week's visit.
