About two-thirds of American Jews worry that US President Donald Trump’s policy towards Ukraine could portend a future policy shift toward Israel, according to a new survey.
The Jewish People Policy Institute’s monthly report on Diaspora Jewry, published Sunday, finds that 63% of American Jews say that after a tense meeting with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky at the White House last month, Trump’s handling of relations with Ukraine, makes them “more concerned” about Trump’s future policies with Israel.
Some 74% of respondents say they do not support Trump’s policies regarding Ukraine and the war with Russia, the report says.
Overall, 27% of respondents say they have a lot of confidence that Trump will do the right thing when it comes to US-Israel relations, 32% say they have low confidence, and 38% say they have no confidence in Trump’s handling of US-Israel relations.
Help us report truthfully on social media
As a multimedia journalist, my job is to take the quality, fact-based journalism produced by The Times of Israel newsroom and make it accessible across every platform — from Instagram posts to podcasts to short-form videos.
This is how many, especially young people, consume news these days. But misinformation is rampant on social media. Our team at ToI produces accurate, responsible short-form reporting on Israel and the Jewish world.
If you believe in the importance of factual social media journalism, please consider joining our reader support group, The Times of Israel Community. Your financial support is essential to sustain responsible multimedia reporting.
