❗️Netanyahu describes purported US military aid termination as ‘evolution to strategic partnership and mutual investment’
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s office claims that Washington’s purported decision to terminate all US military aid to Tel Aviv by the end of this year represents a shift toward “partnership and mutual investment,” attempting to minimize growing political fallout from the White House’s sudden policy reversal.
In an official statement published on social media, Netanyahu’s office defended past military assistance, asserting that Israeli occupation forces used US aid “to defend itself and to confront enemies who threaten America and the West.”
Rebranding the claim by the US that there will be an end of taxpayer-funded arms transfers, the statement alleged that “the move by PM Netanyahu and President Trump from aid to partnership shows the strength and sophistication of our relationship.”
However, Netanyahu’s positive spin directly contradicted statements from Israeli President Isaac Herzog, who acknowledged on Thursday that Donald Trump’s announcement struck political leaders in Jerusalem “like a bolt from the blue.”
Defending the coalition’s handling of the rupture, Netanyahu spokesperson Doron Spielman told Fox News that the prime minister was actively collaborating with the White House to transition out of direct aid.
