Before the presidential election, the U.S. government's policy toward Israel is a move to make it a factual fact.

With the US presidential election on the horizon, the US government is stepping up its move to turn the Israeli-oriented policy that President Trump has been promoting into an established fact, and the Palestinian side is opposed to this.

US President Donald Trump relocates the embassy by recognizing Jerusalem as the capital of Israel, which is fighting for attribution with Palestine, in order to gain the support of the Christian evangelicals who emphasize support for Israel with the presidential election in mind. We have promoted policies toward Israel, such as stating that settlement activities on the west bank of the occupied Jordan River are not considered to be violations of international law.



Under these circumstances, the US State Department made it possible to change the place of birth of American nationals born in Jerusalem from "Jerusalem" to "Israel" on the 29th of last month, and on the 30th, the first passport will be released. It was issued.



The US government also agreed with the Israeli side last month to lift restrictions that could not be funded to support academic research on the West Bank.



The Palestinian side is intensifying its opposition to these movements, saying it is a violation of international law.



Regarding what the US government is doing at this time, Israel's leading media, Haaretz, said, "We are preparing for the end of the Trump administration."



Immediately before the US presidential election vote, the US government is likely to aim to make the policy a fact of life, regardless of the outcome.
