Advisers close to Vice President Kamala Harris have denied that she expressed openness to cutting off arms transfers to Israel, a key demand of pro-Palestine groups looking for a sharp departure from the United States’ policy of support for Israel’s war in Gaza.
In a social media post on Thursday, Harris’s national security adviser Phil Gordon disputed reports that the Democratic presidential candidate was receptive to calls for a weapons embargo.
“@VP has been clear: she will always ensure Israel is able to defend itself against Iran and Iran-backed terrorist groups. She does not support an arms embargo on Israel. She will continue to work to protect civilians in Gaza and to uphold international humanitarian law,” Gordon said.
