The Minister of Diaspora Affairs is a post in the Israeli cabinet. The portfolio has gone under several different names and was combined with the Jerusalem portfolio between 2013 and 2015. Between June and November 2005 there was also a Deputy Minister.
The combination of the portfolios of Diaspora relations emphasized the role of the ministry as one of a number of leading spokespersons for the Israeli government abroad, albeit more directly to the Jewish diaspora in comparison to the general state-to-state diplomacy of the Foreign Minister.
