Israel aims to reduce military financial support received from the US.
This was stated by Israel's Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu in an interview with CBS News.
When asked whether he had considered reducing US financial support, the Israeli prime minister answered yes: "Of course. I told this to President Trump as well. I want to reduce the American financial support, which is the financial component of our military cooperation, to zero. Because we receive 3.8 billion dollars annually. And I think it is time to give up the remaining military aid."
The Israeli prime minister noted that he wants to start this process immediately and complete it within ten years.
It should be noted that the current agreement, which expires in 2028, stipulates that the US allocates 3.8 billion dollars in military aid to Israel annually. However, according to Brown University's "Costs of War" Project, from the Hamas militant intervention from the Gaza Strip into Israeli territory on October 7, 2023, until October 2025, US military support to Israel has exceeded 21.7 billion dollars. /musavat.com
