U.S.-Israel relations
Listen 00:49:30Guests: Ambassador Dennis Ross and Ilan Goldenberg
In a highly anticipated speech yesterday, Secretary of State John Kerry defended the Obama administration’s commitment to a two-state solution, saying it was the only way to guarantee democracy in Israel. He responded to claims that the U.S. orchestrated the passage of a U.N Security Resolution condemning settlements and made the case that we continue to be Israel’s closest ally. This morning on Radio Times, we’ll talk about Mr. Kerry’s speech and the strains in U.S.- Israel relations with Ambassador DENNIS ROSS of the Washington Institute for Near East Policy and ILAN GOLDENBERG of the Center for a New American Security.
