Biden may call for the establishment of a Palestinian state before the end of his term" - Yedioth Ahronoth
The newspaper tour sheds light on the possibility of US President Joe Biden calling for the recognition of a Palestinian state before the end of his term, in addition to the nature of the confrontation between Israel and Iran, and the behavior of President-elect Donald Trump and his position on Arab issues.
We start with the Israeli newspaper Yedioth Ahronoth, Michael Oren, a former Israeli ambassador to the United States, wrote an article titled "Biden may call for the establishment of a Palestinian state before Trump succeeds him."
Although US President Joe Biden is generally considered a "friend of Israel," he is not a fan of the current government of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, according to Oren, who believed that Biden may call on the United Nations to recognize a Palestinian state before the end of his term, and the reason is to get the "last laugh" at Netanyahu.
Oren recalled an incident in 2016 when he was a member of the Knesset and an official in the Prime Minister's Office, when then-US President Barack Obama approved a security and military aid package, and three months later the United States allowed By adopting Security Council Resolution 2334 condemning Israeli settlements in the West Bank.
He spoke of his warning that Obama had used his final months in office to criticize Israel in the UN Security Council, saying: “He offered us financial support with one hand, and then slapped us with the other.”
