U.S. President Donald Trump announced Tuesday that economic aid to Israel will be halted by the end of the year. "I will not pay for Israel anymore," Trump stated in an interview with Fox News, adding that the annual $4 billion in aid is no longer needed by Israel. He cited Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu as having suggested that ending the aid would be appropriate. Trump clarified that Israel would still be able to purchase weapons from the United States. The president also commented on the ongoing U.S. midterm elections, expressing optimism that the results would exceed expectations. Last month, Prime Minister Netanyahu remarked on changes in American policy, stating, "If you think we will continue to receive what I brought twice, tens of billions of dollars in American aid for the defense budget, then this will not happen. America has changed."
