Republican presidential candidate Nikki Haley hit out against primary opponent Vivek Ramaswamy over his foreign policy stance on Israel, decrying the business entrepreneur's previous suggestions that the United States should halt funding to the Middle Eastern country as a “dangerous” proposal.
“Ramaswamy’s attacks & desperate attempts at damage control don’t change how he treats our friend Israel & how his dangerous policies make America less safe,” Haley said in a social media post. “Israel faces genocidal threats from Hamas, Hezbollah, Iran, & Syria. Our next president must understand that. Vivek said we should abandon Israel after 2028. Those are HIS words.”The comments come in response to past statements from Ramaswamy suggesting additional U.S.
Haley seized on that proposal during the first GOP primary debate last week, accusing Ramaswamy of advocating the end to “America’s special bond with Israel.” The former United Nations ambassador then attacked Ramaswamy for his lack of foreign policy experience on a number of other issues. "Our relationship with Israel would never be stronger than by the end of my first term,” Ramaswamy shot back. “But it’s not a client relationship, it’s a friendship. And you know what friends do? Friends help each other stand on their own two feet."
“That’s what Vivek actually said, so don’t believe the opponents’ lies that he wants to cut aid to Israel — which makes zero sense as a foreign policy priority any time in the foreseeable future,” the website states.
