U.S. Vice President J.D. Vance has refrained from endorsing Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu ahead of the Knesset elections, contrasting with former President Donald Trump who previously announced his support for Netanyahu. In an interview with the 2WAY program, Vance stated, "I support American candidates, and that is what I am focusing on right now, the midterm elections." He elaborated, "I am not against expressing support for him, but I am also not for expressing support for him. I do not interfere in Israeli elections."
Earlier this year, Vance had expressed support for former Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orbán in his country's elections, in which Orbán ultimately lost.
