US Special Envoy Steve Witkoff praised Donald Trump's support for Israel, suggesting Trump could simultaneously serve as US president and Israeli prime minister. Witkoff emphasized the need for US-Israel cooperation to prevent Iran from acquiring nuclear weapons, calling it an existential threat.
At a New York gala for United Hatzalah, Witkoff highlighted Trump's popularity in Israel, citing a recent poll showing 69% confidence in his foreign policies. He also discussed ongoing nuclear talks with Iran and the impasse in negotiations for the release of hostages held by Hamas.
Times Of Israel: UN set to hold non-binding vote on Gaza ceasefire; Israel slams ‘charade’
The UN General Assembly will vote on a resolution demanding an immediate ceasefire in Gaza, following a US veto of a similar measure in the Security Council. The resolution is expected to pass with significant support, despite Israeli opposition, as it reflects global sentiment on the conflict.
This vote precedes a UN conference aimed at promoting a two-state solution, with the US warning countries against actions perceived as anti-Israel. The resolution calls for the release of hostages, unhindered aid access, and condemns the use of starvation as warfare.
The Telegraph: Trump could scrap Aukus deal
The U.S. is reviewing the Aukus nuclear submarine pact with the UK and Australia, which could lead to its cancellation. Concerns have been raised about the impact on U.S. domestic submarine production and the readiness of American military capabilities.
Despite the review, U.S. defense officials reaffirmed their commitment to supplying Australia with nuclear-powered submarines, a key aspect of the trilateral security alliance. The Aukus deal, criticized by China, aims to enhance military collaboration in the Indo-Pacific region.
