"We cannot allow our country in the Middle East Domestic politics should be subordinated to the state of Israel," said Vance, speaking at a conference organized by the All-In podcast. According to him, Israel remains an important partner of the United States in the field of military technology and intelligence sharing, but allied relations do not mean the absence of differences. Vance said that US President Donald Trump, in his opinion, has more often than any other president in the last 40 years shown a willingness to have a different opinion with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, if he considered that the American The interests of the citizens differ from the interests of the Israeli government. "Trump is the only president of the last 40 years who is ready to say: "Yes, Bibi is a good partner, but our opinions on this issue are different," said the vice president, using Netanyahu's popular nickname. According to Vance, Trump may also consider that Netanyahu is right in some regard from the point of view of Israel's interests, but at the same time he chose a different path based on the interests of the United States. The vice president emphasized that Washington's relations with other allies should also be built taking into account American interests. He mentioned NATO as an example. "We have many important relations and partnerships in NATO, but this does not mean that we will completely subordinate our European foreign policy to NATO, just as we cannot allow our neighbor "The foreign policy of the Middle East should be subordinated to the state of Israel," Vance said. According to him, the United States will cooperate with other countries where their interests coincide, and will have different views on issues where they differ. "We will pursue America's interests. This is the only way to conduct a rational foreign policy," the US vice president said.
