Bhutan and Israel established formal relations in December 2020 with the signing of an agreement between the respective countries' ambassadors in India.[1] Israel is the 54th country with which Bhutan has established ties.[2] According to reports, the two countries have had a strong unofficial relationship since 1982,[3] and have been in secret negotiations for several years before the formal announcement.[4]
