New British Prime Minister a "Huge Zionist and Huge Supporter of Israel"
(Jewish News-UK) Lee Harpin - British Prime Minister Liz Truss told the Conservative Friends of Israel on Sunday she is a "huge Zionist and huge supporter of Israel." Truss added: "In this world - where we are facing threats from authoritarian regimes who don't believe in freedom and democracy - two free democracies, the UK and Israel, need to stand shoulder to shoulder." Foreign Secretary James Cleverly told the event of his "incredible pride" at being involved in the "warming of relations between Israel and its neighbors in the region." "Israel has been a beacon of democracy, liberalism, openness, tolerance in a part of the world where that has not been the history," he added.
