Tziporah Malka "Tzipi" Livni ((ヘブライ語:ציפורה מלכה "ציפי" לבני), ; born 8 July 1958) is a prominent Israeli politician. Livni served as a minister in the cabinets of Ariel Sharon and Ehud Olmert from 2001 to 2009, most notably as Minister of Foreign Affairs from 2006 to 2009, during which time she also led peace talks with the Palestinians. She then served as Leader of the Opposition until 2012.〔(Government 31 ) The Knesset〕 Between 18 March 2013 and 2 December 2014, as leader of the liberal Hatnuah party she founded,〔(Israel election: Who are the key candidates? ), BBC (14 March 2015)〕 Livni served as Minister of Justice in Benjamin Netanyahu's third government. She also led the Ministerial Committee on Legislation, was charged with overseeing Israel's diplomatic initiatives with the United States and Europe, and was chief negotiator in peace negotiations with the Palestinians. In December 2014, she teamed up with Labor Party and opposition leader Isaac Herzog and together formed a joint list, the Zionist Union, to contest Israel's 2015 elections. Born to a prominent right-wing, revisionist Zionist family, Tzipi Livni has become one of Israel's leading voices for the two-state solution.〔Ethan Bronner, (Main Party in Israeli Coalition Set to Pick Leader ), New York Times (September 16, 2008)〕 In Israel, she has earned a reputation as an honest politician who sticks to her principles.〔mako, (2008). תכנית הילדים החדשה של ציפי לבני. () Available at: http://www.mako.co.il/news-elections-2009/online/Article-e0b9de9ced34e11004.htm (8 Oct. 2015 ).}〕 In 2011 Livni was named one of "150 Women Who Shake the World" by ''Newsweek'' and ''The Daily Beast''. ==Early life== Born in Tel Aviv, Livni is the daughter of Eitan Livni (born in Poland) and Sara (Rosenberg), both prominent former Irgun members. After Israel's independence, Eitan and Sara Livni became the first couple to marry in the new state. Her father served as the chief operations officer of the Irgun. As a child, Livni was a member of the Betar youth movement and played basketball for Elitzur Tel Aviv.〔Shavit Ben-Arie, Havrot HaKnesset, 2011 (Hebrew).〕 Growing up in an Israel dominated by the Labour Party, Livni says she felt marginalized, believing that the establishment had minimized her parents’ contribution to Israel’s founding. Despite the hard-line image of the Irgun, she says her parents had respect for the Arabs〔 and acted only against the British army, not civilians. During the 1984 Likud primaries, her father, who had served in the Knesset for Herut and Likud as a moderate,〔 did not campaign for a seat in the Knesset, and urged party members to support a Druze candidate instead because he thought it important for Likud to have Arab representation.〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Tzipi Livni」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
