United States Vice President JD Vance stated that he intends to remain on the sidelines regarding Israel's upcoming election, declining to follow Donald Trump in endorsing Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. Vance clarified that his position is not intended as either pro- or anti-endorsement, emphasizing that he is simply choosing not to get involved in the Israeli electoral process.

Trump's endorsement of Netanyahu, released on Sunday ahead of next week's election, praised the Israeli prime minister as strong, brave, and brilliant despite facing tremendous opposition, including from within Israel. Meanwhile, the move drew mixed reactions among conservative figures, with former White House adviser Steve Bannon expressing publicly that he is not enthusiastic about Trump's endorsement of Netanyahu.
