US Vice President JD Vance sharply criticized the recent vote in the Knesset to apply Israeli sovereignty over Judea and Samaria, describing it as a 'stupid political stunt' and expressing personal offense. Speaking to reporters before leaving Israel, Vance called the vote 'weird' and said he found it confusing. He emphasized that he had been told the vote was symbolic and dismissed it as a mere political gesture. Vance reaffirmed that the current administration's policy remains unchanged, stating that the West Bank will not be annexed by Israel.
