US President Donald Trump stated on Tuesday that Washington will not support Israel financially after striking a deal with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to stop the $4 billion aid programme by the end of this year. Commenting on the move in an interview with Fox News, the American head of state claimed that Israel is “fine with it,” as it has become a very successful country and they don’t need the aid. “We won’t be paying Israel anymore,” he underscored, but clarified that the US can still “help” its great ally. While recognizing the importance and standing partnership with Israel in the Middle East, Trump branded the country a “helper” in the region. “We are the big, they are the small,” he concluded about the relationship.
