The 'Ministry of Strategic Affairs in Israel was created in 2006 under Avigdor Lieberman.[1]

Haaretz reported in April 2015 the existence of a letter by Foreign Ministry Director-General Nissim Ben-Sheetrit, which made comments to the effect that 'in recent years, issues like the diplomatic efforts to foil Iran’s nuclear program, the campaign against the Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions Movement (BDS), as well as strategic dialogue with the United States, have all been transferred to the Strategic and Intelligence Affairs Ministry'.[2]
