US to cut nearly $4 billion in Israel military aid, Trump says

·Deutsche Welle·Impact 4/5 · High

The US is planning to reduce its military aid to Israel by nearly $4 billion. This decision is significant because it marks a change in US policy towards Israel, which could have implications for the country's defense budget and its relationship with the US. The move could also have broader economic and trade implications, particularly if it affects the US's role as a major arms supplier to Israel. This shift in policy could have far-reaching consequences for the US-Israel relationship.
