WASHINGTON, D.C. – President-elect Donald Trump is continuing to fill key positions in his administration. Today, he is expected to announce former Arkansas Governor Mike Huckabee as the new ambassador to Israel.
Huckabee is known for his strong support of Israel. Trump’s decision aligns with his promise to closely align U.S. foreign policy with Israel’s interests. This comes at a time when Israel is engaged in conflicts with Hamas in Gaza and Hezbollah in Lebanon.
Trump’s cabinet selections continue to be closely watched as he prepares to take office.
