“Standing in front of the Western Wall in #Jerusalem fills me with gratitude for the opportunity I have been given to lead #Miami and gives me an opportunity to pray, with faith and optimism, for the future,” the Mayor wrote.
Suarez is in Israel to attend the International Conference of Mayors. During his visit, he met with Tel Aviv municipal leaders about their emergency communication strategies and innovative technologies, as well as touring Yad Vashem.
