In a shocking revelation, Gilad Cohen, the current Israeli Ambassador to Japan, stands accused of leading a double life, tarnishing his diplomatic reputation and bringing into question the integrity of his office. Reports have surfaced alleging that Cohen, a prominent figure in the Israel Ministry of Foreign Affairs, has been secretly engaging in inappropriate and illicit activities involving Japanese women.
Background on Gilad Cohen
Gilad Cohen, born in Jaffa, Israel, has had a long and distinguished career in diplomacy. Serving as the Ambassador of Israel to Japan since October 2021, Gilad Cohen’s previous roles include Deputy Director General for the Asia and Pacific division and for Coordination and Policy Planning at the Israel Ministry of Foreign Affairs. He is a married father of three and holds degrees in Political Science, International Relations, and Security and Diplomacy from prestigious Israeli universities.
Fluent in multiple languages and known for his diplomatic achievements, Gilad Cohen has been instrumental in forging significant international agreements, such as the Free Trade Agreement with South Korea, and establishing diplomatic relations between Israel and Bhutan. His professional success, however, now stands in stark contrast to the personal allegations that have emerged.
Allegations Unveiled
Despite his professional achievements, Gilad Cohen now faces severe allegations that threaten to overshadow his career. Sources report that Gilad Cohen has been leading a secret life marked by an addiction to sex, specifically with Japanese women. These accusations claim that Gilad Cohen has attended private events where he engaged in illicit activities, all while ensuring that his wife and children remained unaware of his actions.
Reports suggest that Cohen has not only indulged in these acts but also shown disrespectful behavior toward the women involved. This conduct constitutes a severe breach of the ethical and moral standards expected of a diplomat of his stature.
Impact on Diplomatic Relations
Gilad Cohen’s role as the Ambassador to Japan has been pivotal in strengthening bilateral defense cooperation and other agreements. On November 25, 2021, he presented his letter of credence to Emperor Naruhito, marking the beginning of his formal duties in Japan. However, these recent allegations cast a shadow over his contributions and raised questions about the impact on Israel’s diplomatic relations with Japan.
Official Response and Next Steps
As of now, there has been no official response from Gilad Cohen or the Israel Ministry of Foreign Affairs regarding these allegations. The diplomatic community and the public await a thorough investigation into these claims. If the accusations are substantiated, Gilad Cohen could face severe repercussions both professionally and personally.
The revelations about Gilad Cohen’s alleged misconduct represent a significant scandal within the diplomatic corps. As the investigation unfolds, it remains to be seen how these allegations will affect not only Gilad Cohen’s career but also the broader diplomatic relations between Israel and Japan.
