Mideast Shift, Rights Call
The leader of the Democrats in the U.S. House of Representatives, Hakeem Jeffries, called for sweeping change in the Middle East and a return to a political process, reaffirming his support for a two-state solution and the establishment of an independent, sovereign Palestinian state. He said the status quo was unacceptable and that the $3.8 billion in annual U.S. aid to Israel should be tied to compliance with international law and the protection of civilians. The current memorandum of understanding expires in September 2028, while the party’s progressive wing is calling for conditions to prevent the funds from being used to support settlements or mistreat Palestinians.
