A notebook, handwritten by Abba Eban, with drafts for his defense concerning a dollar account which he kept in the US. The drafts were written, most probably, while consulting with attorney Ya'akov Ne'eman (or dictated by the latter). [late 1970s].?Most of the text deals with expenses made by Abba Eban to finance his literary activity during his long stay in the United States. The writings imply that keeping a dollar account was necessary. In the end of this notebook appears a draft of an answer to the question "was the existence of an account abroad according to a request and permit?" Eban's reply is positive.?Late in the 1970s, shortly after the dollar account affair which led to Yitzhak Rabin's resignation from his role as prime minister, it was found out that the ex-foreign minister Abba Eban also had a dollar account in the United States. Abba Eban claimed that he had an authorization to keep this account and he appointed attorney Ya'akov Ne'eman to represent him. Finally, the Attorney General of Israel, Aharon Barak, decided not to sue Eban.
Notebook: 21.5 cm, [21] pp written in pen, with corrections and additions in pencil. Good condition.
