U.S. President Joe Biden will not reverse the landmark decision by the Trump administration to recognise Jerusalem as Israel’s capital.

The U.S. embassy will also be maintained there, secretary of state-designate Antony Blinken confirmed.

Asked by Senator Ted Cruz at a confirmation hearing if the U.S. would continue Trump’s policies on both points, Blinken said without hesitation, “Yes and yes.”
