US did not condemn settlement import ban
The article's text discusses internal disagreements within President Donald Trump's administration regarding the stance on settlements in the West Bank. A draft statement was prepared criticizing the actions of Britain, France, and Canada for banning settlement imports, but it was not issued due to lack of support from the White House and senior officials. Meanwhile, officials such as Marco Rubio expressed indirect positions. These events reveal divisions within the administration over how to handle the expansion of settlements, amid the ongoing Israeli government's expansion of settlements and increased tensions between the American right and their backing of Israel's policies. This coincided with a decline in public support within the United States, as more people, especially Democrats, view American support for Israel as excessive. However, the US administration has not taken a firm stance similar to the bans by Britain, France, and Canada on settlement imports.
