US Ambassador to Israel Tom Nides denied on Tuesday that the Biden administration would boycott National Security Minister Itamar Ben Gvir, but stressed his main contact in the new government in Israel would be Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.
“My interface is with the Prime Minister,” Nides told Kan 11 News’ diplomatic correspondent Gili Cohen in an interview. “The Prime Minister, as he has told all of us, has his hands very firmly on the wheel. That’s who we’re dealing with.”
“I’m not saying we’re not going to meet with people or going to meet with people. My interlocutor is the Prime Minister and the Prime Minister’s Office. He’s in charge of the government,” continued the Ambassador.
