I Don’t Think Donald Trump Is The Kind Of President That Tells Other Countries What To Do – Huckabee

In an interview with Arutz Sheva, former Arkansas Governor Mike Huckabee expressed his support for Israel’s right to independently decide its policy on the West Bank, emphasizing non-interference from the United States. Huckabee’s comments came amid Israeli Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich’s push to prepare for potential annexation of the occupied West Bank.

Huckabee underscored that such critical decisions should rest with Israel, not be dictated by external nations, including the U.S. He affirmed confidence in Israel’s capability to act in its best interest without foreign influence.

He also spoke positively of former President Donald Trump’s foreign policy approach, suggesting it would support Israel’s choices while fostering peace and strong alliances. Huckabee noted that ambassadors must adhere to presidential policies, stating, “As an ambassador, you carry out the president’s policies, not your own.”

Praising Trump’s past policies, Huckabee described them as the most pro-Israel stance he had seen from any U.S. president. His remarks reflect a viewpoint within conservative U.S. circles that champions Israel’s autonomy while seeking to bolster diplomatic support.

Huckabee’s statements come as discussions about the West Bank’s future persist, with potential implications for Israel’s international relations.
