Far-right National Security Minister Itamar Ben Gvir tells the Wall Street Journal that Israel would be receiving more support from the US if former president Donald Trump had been reelected.
“Instead of giving us his full backing, [US President Joe] Biden is busy with giving humanitarian aid and fuel [to Gaza], which goes to Hamas,” says Ben Gvir, adding that “if Trump was in power, the US conduct would be completely different.”
Ben Gvir also tells the news outlet that Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu “is at a crossroads,” and that he “has to choose in what direction he’ll go,” but the minister says he has no intention of pulling out of the current government, though he has repeatedly threatened to do so.
