“While I have often referred to myself as an analogue president, in a digital age, I am delighted for the opportunity to engage with people around the world and answer their questions,” Rivlin said in a statement.
Rivlin was elected as Israel’s tenth president in 2014, after serving more than 20 years in the Knesset as a lawmaker, government minister nad speaker of the Knesset.
