President Isaac Herzog acknowledges the latest spat between Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s government and the Biden administration over US weapon supply to Israel during his address at the US Embassy in Jerusalem’s annual July 4 celebration.
“As in any family, there is not always agreement on everything, and that’s fine. Disagreements do not undermine the broad basis of friendship and alliance between our two countries, which keep us connected to our common story and advance the vital interests of our two countries.”
“On behalf of the state and the people of Israel, I express my deep gratitude to President Biden, to the United States government, to Congress, and to the American people for the support and solidarity that have always been an anchor for our security and that have been expressed in many ways since the seventh of October,” Herzog says.
While prime ministers typically attend the US embassy’s annual July 4 event, Netanyahu did not participate this year.
