Trump’s White House continues to flip-flop on status of Jerusalem
Add ToI as a Preferred Source on GoogleTrump’s administration continues to waiver on whether it will change longstanding US policy by declaring Jerusalem the capital of Israel.
Earlier, a screen preview on the White House website announcing upcoming statements by Trump and Netanyahu noted the location as “Jerusalem, Israel.”
Less than an hour later, the dateline was revised to mark the location as only “Jerusalem.”
No explanation was given for the original or revised datelines.
The Trump administration had said ahead of the president’s trip that he wouldn’t recognize Jerusalem as Israel’s capital, a pledge he made during the campaign.
