Trump’s Aid Cutoff Plan
Donald Trump’s announcement that he intends to halt U.S. military aid to Israel by the end of the year, despite the current agreement running through 2028, has raised concerns about the future of the assistance and relations between Washington and Tel Aviv. The aid amounts to $3.8 billion a year, and ending it could cut the security budget by around 12 billion shekels. Meanwhile, the 2027 budget faces an annual deficit of nearly 15 billion shekels, according to analysts’ estimates. They warned that making up the shortfall could require new taxes and cuts to spending on health, education, welfare and infrastructure. The halt is more likely to take the form of a gradual reduction, they said, but its political impact would still signal waning U.S. support for Israel.
