Pompeo scoffs at European, US ‘elite’ who want Golan returned to Syria
Add ToI as a Preferred Source on GoogleDuring his visit to the Golan Heights, Pompeo also ridicules calls for Israel to relinquish the Golan Heights to Syria.
He condemns what he described as calls from “the salons in Europe and in the elite institutions in America” for Israel to return the Golan, seized in the Six Day War.
“Imagine with (Syrian President Bashar) al-Assad in control of this place, the risk of the harm to the West and to Israel,” Pompeo says.
