The bipartisan Senate Congressional Delegation led by Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer spoke by phone with Israeli President Isaac Herzog from the U.S. Embassy in Beijing to get an update on the ongoing situation in Israel.
Leader Schumer, the highest ranking Jewish official in American history, told President Herzog that although his heart aches for Israel, he stood firm in the bipartisan support in the United States Senate for Israel and stands ready to do whatever it takes to ensure Israel has the resources it needs.
Additionally, the delegation met Tuesday night with a group of ambassadors of allied nations at the U.S. ambassador’s residence in Beijing. The delegation expressed their support for Israel and urged their governments to do everything they can to stand in solidarity with the country.
