In Rare Speech to Israel’s Knesset, Stefanik Chides Biden for Withholding Weapons
‘There is no excuse for an American president to block aid to Israel that was duly passed by the Congress,’ the senior Republican leader says.
Elise Stefanik, a House Republican leader seen as a candidate to be President Trump’s running mate, delivered a speech before Israel’s parliament on Sunday in which she criticized President Biden’s approach to the war in Gaza.
Ms. Stefanik, the fourth highest-ranked Republican in the House of Representatives, is the latest of several American politicians from both sides of the aisle to visit Israel since Hamas’ October 7 attack ignited the war in Gaza. But it’s rare for such visitors to address Israel’s parliament, known as the Knesset.
