Haley Campaign Press Release - Haley Condemns Ramaswamy's Israel Views, Reaffirms U.S.-Israel Bond

CHARLESTON, S.C. – Presidential candidate Nikki Haley criticized Vivek Ramaswamy's call for walking away from America's special alliance with Israel.

In an interview with Russell Brand on Rumble last week, Ramaswamy called for treating Israel like other Middle Eastern countries and ending military aid to Israel in 2028.

"Vivek Ramaswamy is completely wrong to call for ending America's special bond with Israel," Haley said. "Support for Israel is both the morally right and strategically smart thing to do. Both countries are stronger and safer because of our iron-clad friendship. As president, I will never abandon Israel.

"This is part of a concerning pattern with Vivek. Between abandoning Israel, abolishing the FBI, and giving Taiwan to China, his foreign policy proposals have a common theme: they make America less safe."
