The US National Security Advisor heads to Israel
White House National Security Advisor Jake Sullivan will travel to Israel on Thursday to discuss developments in the Gaza Strip and discuss the situation in the region.
According to a statement issued by the White House on Wednesday, Sullivan will meet with Israeli President Isaac Herzog and Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu during his visit on December 14 and 15.
Sullivan is expected to once again convey the vision of President Joe Biden’s administration regarding the high casualties among Palestinian civilians and the deteriorating humanitarian situation in the Gaza Strip as a result of the Israeli attacks.
On Tuesday, US President Joe Biden considered that Israel had begun to lose international support due to its indiscriminate bombing of the Gaza Strip, and called on Netanyahu to change his government because it doesn’t want a two-state solution.
Since the start of the Israeli war on the Gaza Strip on October 7, the Biden administration has provided Tel Aviv with the strongest possible military and diplomatic support, and used its Veto in the UN Security Council to prevent the issuance of a resolution calling for a permanent ceasefire.
