Prime Minister Netanyahu Announces New Town in Golan Heights Will Be Named after President Donald Trump (VIDEO)

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu announced this weekend he will propose a resolution to name a new community in the Golan Heights after President Donald Trump.

Reuters reported:

Israel said on Tuesday it would name a new community on the Golan Heights after U.S. President Donald Trump as an expression of gratitude for his recognition of its claim of sovereignty over the strategic plateau.

Israel captured the Golan from Syria in a 1967 war and annexed it, in a move not recognized internationally. The United States broke with other world powers last month when Trump signed a decree recognizing Israeli sovereignty there.

“All Israelis were deeply moved when President Trump made his historic decision,” Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said in a video statement made on the Golan.

He added that, after the Jewish Passover festival, he would “bring to the government a resolution calling for a new community on the Golan Heights named after President Donald J. Trump.”
