Former U.S. Vice President Kamala Harris has criticized both the Trump and Biden administrations for failing to exert sufficient pressure on Israel during the Gaza war. Speaking at the Asan Institute for Policy Studies in Seoul, South Korea, Harris stated that Washington should have used its influence earlier and more forcefully to curb Israel's military actions.
"We have recently seen the failure to use our leverage to restrain the horrific conduct of the Israeli government in the war in Gaza," Harris said. She added that the current administration "gives Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu a blank check," while her own previous administration "should have acted earlier and with much greater determination."
Harris's remarks come amid speculation about her potential presidential aspirations for 2028, following her loss to Donald Trump in the 2024 election. Earlier in April, Harris had also attacked Trump during a political event in Detroit, accusing him of being "dragged into a war" with Iran by Netanyahu. She claimed this was a "pathetic attempt" by Trump to distract from the Epstein documents and characterized his administration as "corrupt, ruthless, and incompetent."
