Donald Trump endorsed Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, drawing criticism from Senator Bernie Sanders. The US has also urged Israel to curb settler violence.
Donald Trump offered Benjamin Netanyahu his full endorsement for reelection, calling the Israeli prime minister a "warrior." This declaration came as the U.S. State Department urged Israel to address settler violence in the West Bank. Trump also stated he trusts "nobody" in politics when asked about his confidence in Netanyahu.
The endorsement arrives as Israel faces elections and ongoing scrutiny over its settlement policies. Senator Bernie Sanders criticized Trump's backing, linking it to authoritarian tendencies and calling for a halt to U.S. military aid to Israel. The U.S. administration's dual stance reflects a complex relationship with Israel and its security concerns.
