JD Vance calls Israel's parliament vote on West Bank annexation an 'insult'

U.S. Vice President JD Vance criticized on Thursday a symbolic vote in Israel's parliament the previous day about annexing the occupied West Bank, saying it amounted to an “insult” and went against the Trump administration policies. Hard-liners in the Israeli parliament had narrowly passed a preliminary vote in support of annexing parts of the West Bank — an apparent attempt to embarrass Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu while Vance was still in the country.
