    The news item carried today by "Yediot Aharonot" regarding the issue of reparations to Ghetto workers does not reflect reality, and certainly not the position of the Israeli government.
     
    We do not know of any linkage between the handling of reparations to Holocaust survivors and the issue of settlements.
     
    Israel works hand in hand with the relevant authorities in Germany, including the Chancellor's Office, in order to swiftly resolve in an appropriate manner the dossier of Ghetto workers.
