Trump's election victory may boost support for Israel and Netanyahu

irishtimes.com November 7, 2024, 09:00 PM UTC

Donald Trump’s recent election victory is expected to strengthen support for Israeli Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu. Netanyahu views the outcome as a significant win, anticipating backing for military actions and settlement expansions in Gaza and Lebanon.

Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas has called on Trump to recognize Palestinian aspirations for statehood. Meanwhile, Iran's foreign ministry suggested the election results should prompt a reassessment of past policies.

During his previous term, Trump shifted U.S. policy by recognizing Jerusalem as Israel's capital and supporting Israeli settlements. His return to power may see the re-emergence of advisors who advocated for aggressive policies towards Palestinians and Iran.
