[1] On his return from these two back-to-back missions, he worked in the Human Rights Department of the Ministry and from 1995 to 1998 he served as Deputy Ambassador to Brazil.
[2] During his tenure, he dealt with the crisis in Israel-Sweden relations, against the background of the sanctions against Iran and the Swedish government's recognition of a Palestinian state, following which he was called back to Jerusalem for consultations.
During his five years as ambassador in Sweden, he was very active on social media and managed to spread responses to ongoing criticism of Israel in the context of the conflict and consequently to the willingness of the written media to publish his articles and make public the official Israeli positions on this criticism, before or after it was published.
[5][6][7][8][9] In his next position he was appointed Ambassador, Special Envoy for digital diplomacy, in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
Ambassador Bachman is married to Osnat, who accompanied him on all his missions abroad, and worked at the various embassies to which they have been posted, including as a cultural attaché, during his five years in Sweden.
