The Europe Update - European news, analyses & reflections
🇺🇸🇬🇧🇫🇷🇨🇦🇮🇱 According to Reuters, in early September, US officials drafted a statement for Secretary of State Marco Rubio condemning UK, France, and Canada’s plans to block imports from Israeli settlements in the West Bank.
Driven by David Milstein, aide to US Ambassador Mike Huckabee, the draft labelled these actions as hostile and antisemitic, but it was never released due to lack of support from the White House and State Department.
This incident highlights a divide between the Trump administration and its diplomats in Israel, as well as a growing ideological split within the American right regarding Israel.
