Vance says Israel has to 'respect' peace process like everybody else
US Vice President JD Vance criticised Israeli cabinet members in a press briefing on Thursday, in a departure from his usual stance on Israel.
"The Israelis, like everybody else, have to respect this peace process," Vance said. "That is fundamentally good for them and good for the entire region."
“If I was in the cabinet of the Israeli government, I might not be attacking the only powerful ally that I have anywhere left in the entire world.”
